The Little River High school track team has officially started the 2018 season. After speaking with head coach, Betsy Lafferty, she explains, “practice has been going well and I am confident in the team’s ability to do well this season.” On Thursday, April 5th they had their first track meet, and they did well, with some members of the team placing in their events. Mrs. Lafferty states that, “They will be changing up some things, and will surely work hard to achieve what they want as a team in track.”
