Hillcrest Girls' Track Team is 'Battle Tested'

Teammates join together for character/team building activities

Recently, the Hillcrest Girls’ Track and Field Team had the pleasure of inviting Mr. Blake Williams from “Battle Tested” for a character/team building activity. This non-profit organization offers clinics related to teaching athletes lessons in integrity, leadership, commitment and team building. The battles challenge individuals physically, mentally, and orally. “Our lady Hawks did a wonderful job and were a great representation of Hawks’ pride,” stated Mrs. Artkeyta Moore-Edison, Head Girls’ Track and Field Coach. “The battle was physically and mentally tough, but fun. I stayed focused and enjoyed the challenge. The activities made us feel closer to our teammates,” said sophomore Jasmine Curry. For more information on the girls’ track team contact Mrs. Moore-Edison at amoore-edison@bhsd228.com.
