With upperclassmen competing in both the boys? and girls? divisions, the Marion High School track team will be in a strong position to compete with the top teams in the Mid-Central Activities Association.
Four Hillsboro Trojans and three Marion Warriors have received all-league recognition from the basketball coaches of the Mid-Central Activities Association.
Last season, the Tabor College women’s track and field team scored 103.5 points and finished third at the KCAC meet at Bethany College.
Last season, the men’s squad scored 141 points and finished second in the conference.
If it is important to note that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, it is probably important to note that career coaching basketball at Tabor college advances one day at a time—whether it spans 25 years or two weeks.
