Saucon senior Josh Snead playing in the sand.
Saucon Valley’s Monftford E. Illick Stadium was buzzing yesterday as the Boys’ and Girls’ track team hosted Pen Argyl in their home opener. The Girls’ had a great day defeating the Green Knights handily by a 108.5 to 41.5 score. On the Boys’ side it was a very competitive meet with Pen Argyl clinging to a 78-72 victory. The Saucon Girls improved to 3-1 while the Boys dropped to 0-4. It is certainly worth noting that Coach Kolosky believes the Boys’ record is misleading. He pointed out, “The boys record hardly reflects their work ethic. They leave it out there everyday!”
