You might have been hearing the "bling-bling" in our hallways. Our track and field teams competed in the Mason-Dixon Games Saturday at Louisville's Broadbent Arena. Our performance was the best in TCHS history. The boys placed 7th (without a major field event competitor) and the girls placed 12th (best team from Lexington). Some members of our team have been wearing their medals around their necks with pride. This meet is the "unofficial" Kentucky State Championship for Indoor Track and Field. 54 AAA KY high schools were represented and we beat most of them!
