Coming home to Bethel Park on Saturday, Jan. 18, indoor track athletes had apparent smiles on their faces. The meet at Kent State University was a huge success for each person there.
Each athlete that went from Bethel had amazing times, distances, and heights and were proud of the effort they put forth on the track and field.
During the meet, the Black Hawks realized all of their hard work had paid off in the end.
Bethel had some great races there. Some of them include:
