We have a lot of girls that can compete in multiple events, so I am excited to see them contributing points in a diverse set of events as well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\tAfter finishing second last year, the team hopes to win the Skyland Conference and beat Lawrenceville for the preps title. In February, they will compete for the Non-Public A state title against their rival Union Catholic. \tWith lots of strong talent, the girls\u2019 indoor track team is ready for a successful season.
