Another season for the track and field team was set off with a great start by the Moors’ victory against Rosemead in the March 11 track meet. There are 120 members on the team this season, including several new recruits.

After losing a nine-year winning streak against Schurr last season, the team is dedicated to regaining the championship title. By being more focused, the Moors anticipate heading in that direction.

“I can never really tell [what’s going to happen],” said frosh-soph runner Kevin Wu. “We’ll just have to see what we can improve and work on.”

The competition is marked by the two teams’ equivalent abilities in the Almont League, as Schurr is always the concluding opponent in each season.

“I think Alhambra can make it to the League championships, but not to State,” said Distance Coach Steve Morales, “[Our division] would have to go through some extremely difficult stages and [have] a lot more talent than the other divisions.”

However, according to Morales, there are more talented members in different aspects of the sport this season. Most members are looking forward to making Alhambra one of the top track teams in the League while surpassing their personal records.
