Brian Warwick, Still-
water High's first-year
head track coach, eagerly
anticipated the start of this
track season for a couple of
reasons.
First of all, it's his first
as the head coach after
several seasons as an assis-
tant. Secondly, SHS's track
teams have the opportunity
to practice on the school's
state-of-the-art track around
the Pioneer Stadium football
field.
The much-needed new
track facility is as good as
advertised.
"We have been practicing
in the new stadium and there
is no comparison to the old
track at the high school,"
coach Warwick said. "This
is a nationally certified track
so we have the ability to host

any meet and any records
set here would be official.
There are some things we
are still working on but
hopefully we can start host-
ing meets next season.
"If you ever go out to the
track during fourth period it
looks like an ant hill. Boys'
soccer is on one end, girls'
soccer on the other with the
track kids running round
the field and you have the
off-season (football) kids
running in the bleachers,"
he said. "There is not one
inch of the facility not being
used by Stillwater kids.
"The old track was used
sparingly by track because
of the condition of the track
surface. It was worn down
and caused most of the ath-
letes to develop shin splints
after running on it. Also, the
old track surface was miss-
ing surface in many spots as
well as the runways for the
jumping events."
Warwick said the num-
bers for the track teams
have increased this season
and he believes the new
track facility has enticed
more students to come out
for track.
Stillwater's track teams
return to action today in the
Skiatook Relays. The meet
begins at 4 p.m.
"We will be taking a
full team to Skiatook,"
Warwick noted. "It's called
"under the lights" because
most of the meet is run after
the sun has gone down. In
addition they run several
unique relays and run off
the field events in a relay
format, which means they
add up the three best throws
or jumps for a combined
team score."
Stillwater has had
several impressive perfor-
mances this season, led
by junior Lady Pioneer
thrower April Argo, who
carries an undefeated
record into today's meet at
Skiatook.
"April has done an
amazing job this year," said
coach Warwick. "She was
the state runner-up last year
in the shot as a sophomore.
This year she has won every
meet thus far. She also has
the farthest throw in the
state this year at 39-8."
After today's meet,
SHS's track teams will
compete in the Ponca City
meet on Tuesday, April
13.
