It was another outstanding year for area male track and field athletes, even if they came up short of a state medal.

Leading the way was Canton's Lawrence Halbfoerster, who claimed a District IV title in the 3200, and also made states in the 1600 to be the Bradford County Male Track and Field Athlete of the Year.

Wyalusing's Jonathan Earle was also a District IV champion, earning his title int he pole vault, making him the Field Athlete of the Year.

Athens' Graham Wanck was a Class AAA District IV Champion in the 1600, while just missing states in the 3200, earning him the Track Athlete of the Year.

Towanda freshman Emmett Klees was a state qualifier in the 3200, earning him the Newcomer of the Year honors.

The Athens 4x100 relay of Alex Thompson, Patrick Umber, Avery Gorsline, and Ryan Cook ran a Bradford County best 3:31.46 to be the Relay of the Year.

A young Wyalusing team grew this year, taking fourth at the NTL Invitational Championships despite being shorthanded. They had multiple league champions, earning coach Jim Schools and his staff the Coaching Staff of the Year honors.
