Zach decided to join the track team for the first time this year! He mostly did field events (shotput) and towards the end of the season, they had him doing shotput, discus, and even running races once in a while! He's not very good at the discus thing, but his best shotput throw is 39'7"... most of the other freshman are throwing under 30', so Zach is doing quite well. East High had a track invite two days before the Drake Relays in Des Moines. To let their runners "rest up" before going there, the coaches decided to let the other kids run these races! Zach and three other boys from the shotput team got to run the 4X100 relay -- and they came in third!! Not bad for four boys with no training! I posted a couple pics of Zach from a track meet:
