GO VIKINGS!


This young lady right here deserves so much credit and respect! Brooklyn Jackson tore her labrum during basketball over a year ago. She had surgery in September and was unable to play volleyball or basketball due to the recovery time it took for her labrum to heal. As a freshman she medaled at the State Track & Field Meet in the discus. This year after six months of recovery and rehab, she found herself back at the State Track & Field Meet qualifying and competing in the shot put and discus! Brooklyn threw 35'0.25 in the shot put and missed finals by one place. We know that in a year from now that she will be tough to beat at the State Track & Field Meet! We're so very proud of you, Brooklyn!
