 State Track & Field Events

May 14th & 15th brought students from St. Theresa School to compete at the state finals in Peoria.  The students earned the opportunity to race in a variety of events which included the 7th grade girls 1600 Meter Run,  8th grade boys 100 Meter Dash and the 8th grade boys 1600 Meter Run.  As each event unfolded, there were truly extraordinary finishes for the students participating especially in the 8th Grade Boys 400 Meter Dash (STS 8th grader taking 4th place) and the 4x400 Meter Relay (8th grade relay team took 2nd).
