ELDORA – The Gladbrook-Reinbeck boys track and field team competed in Eldora Friday, April 25, at the South Hardin High School Coed. The Rebels finished with 52 points on the night and earned 11 personal records plus three season’s best in relays. The boys deserve a lot of credit for continued improvement as they have invested themselves into being a Rebel track athlete and are seeing the rewards from their investment.

As coaches watching our athletes perform, this might have been the best meet we have had in the past two years. Now the key for these athletes is it’s ok to smell the perfume but don’t drink it. In simpler terms, feel good about it but don’t be satisfied.
