Coach Campbell's Perspective

"If there is one thing we learned today in the track meet, it is that we are going to work very hard the next four weeks so when we compete in California we are proud of the work we have done, and we are proud of the marks that we post.  Positive today was Nanati breaking two school records in the shot put and weight throw in her first track meet for Arizona Christian."
