TIFFIN – Led by head coach Brian Grime, the Heidelberg track & field team is ready to take on the spring season following a good showing during the indoor season. 

Last spring, the women's team finished 8th overall at the OAC Championships, while the men placed 9th.

IN THE POLLS: 
The men's team were selected eighth with 21 points and the women's team came in seventh with 26 points. 

ROSTER BREAKDOWN: 
On the men's side, there are 28 student-athletes competing for Heidelberg. They will be led by junior Brett Reed (distance) and freshman Jake McEntyre (sprints).

The women have 22 student-athletes competing this spring. Leading them will be seniors Liv Bean (Hurdles/LJ) and Isabel Chasney (distance). Sophomore Lexi Wachtman (Hurdles/LJ) and freshman Maddy McCall (distance) will also be key contributors for the Student Princes. 

QUOTE FROM GRIME:
We are excited to kick off the season in some warm weather in S.C. We had a lot of good things happen indoors, but we have more to build on if we want to improve within the conference. Both groups are hungry and working hard, we have a lot to look forward to. 

THE SCHEDULE: 
The teams opened up outdoor competition yesterday in Myrtle Beach, S.C. as they participate in the Alan Connie Shamrock Inv. from March 16th-18th. Heidelberg will host two events this spring.  The annual Tiffelberg Open on Saturday, April 1st at Hoernemann Stadium and the Tiffin Track Carnival April 14th-April 15th. The OAC Championships will be held May 4th-5th in Alliance.
