Track

The Sutter Middle School Track program has a rich legacy of success and fostering a passion for running, as well as providing a positive environment for our student athletes to train, compete, and develop lifelong friendships with their peers.  Committing ourselves as teammates and student-athletes is paramount.  Nothing comes before that, including winning. 

Our positive team climate should serve to represent and permeate throughout the greater Sutter community, including our student body, staff, alumni, local businesses, and nearby community.  All athletes on the Track roster are well aware of this honor and responsibility.  Team captains help to anchor the value of our influence every year.

Team Captains for the 2023 season are:

• Kira Doherty
• Kate Judy
• Connor Nurmi
• Luke Van Patter

“The real purpose of running isn’t to win the race, it’s to test the limits of the human heart.”  Bill Bowerman

Important Notes

1. All prospective track athletes must attend one sign up meeting and 2 scheduled tryout sessions.
2. All prospective track athletes must have a valid sports packet on file with Ms. Brown in order to participate.
3. Track athletes are expected to attend all scheduled practices (ONCE THEY MAKE THE TEAM).  Stretching yourself too thin amongst other sports and activities is not appropriate and doesn’t help the team if another activity requires your attendance during Sutter’s team time.
