     Our hearfelt thanks go out to the State Indoor Track Committee, the meet officials, volunteers, and Region meet sites and directors for their outstanding efforts this season.  We could not have had the precision and success required by events of this extent without a total team effort. Give yourselves a pat on the back for a job well done!
