2016 Tyrone Track and Field Senior Profiles

The Tyrone boys and girls track and field team will graduate 17 seniors this year. Today against Bellwood, they will run, jump, and throw for the last time on Tyrone’s home track.

This special group of seniors has made some big contributions to the history of Tyrone Track and Field. Among the senior leaders on this year’s squad is two time defending state high jump champion Erika Voyzey, state triple jumper Cullen Raftery, district javelin thrower Carly Crofcheck and state distance runner Adam Zook. Congratulations to these and all the other seniors, and best of luck in the future.
