First Year, First Race, First Record

The ending of Cross Country means the start of Indoor Track and Field, and the welcoming of new members to the team.

Maya Hopwood joined the Wolves this season and right off the blocks made an impact. 

During Hopwood’s first collegiate meet, she set a new school record in the 55 meter sprint, with a time of 7.02 seconds.

Not only did Hopwood break a Western school record, but also earned GNAC Track Athlete of the Week honors.

For a first year, Hopwood is starting on the right foot and gaining well deserved recognition.

The Wolves’ track team return Jan. 18 to start their indoor season in Seattle, Washington.
