A split screen for indoor track and field events
Though the Bromfield indoor track and field teams compete in the multischool Midland-Wachusett D League meets held weekly at Fitchburg High School, Bromfield uses these events to develop its younger, less experienced members of the team. No scores or team records are kept for these meets, according to Coach Marisa Steele, and the Press will not report them. The six-meet series ends Jan. 28.
Meanwhile, Bromfield’s seasoned athletes head to Boston most weekends to race in more challenging regional and state meets sponsored by the Massachusetts State Track Coaches Association typically held at the Reggie Lewis Track and Athletic Center or the Track at New Balance. Check these pages each week for noteworthy performances.
Team competition will return to center stage at the end of the season with the arrival of the Mid-Wach League and Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association championships.
