The Richmond Hill High School Track Team is a perennial state championship track program. Head coach Levi Sybert says many factors contribute to their history of success.
Coach Sybert first credited the outstanding coaching staff surrounding him. Sybert noted that the coaches are very qualified and knowledgeable about the sport. He said they have all played or coached at the collegiate level and understand what it takes to achieve.
He noted that you only have two years where they are at their peak performance, especially with the male track team. He pointed out that maturity and determining what event is perfect for the individual athlete are integral to success.
Next, he praised the middle school and its new coach. With such a strong middle school program, Sybert remarked that the selection process begins early, and more time can be spent with athletes who are determined to pursue the sport at the high school level.
There is no easy track meets for the Wildcats. Coach Sybert also said that he intentionally enters his varsity team in tough meets so that they can square off against great competition. Sybert noted that "It really pushes them, so it is easier when they face other competitive programs in their region."
Richmond Hill High School Facilities also play a significant factor. Coach Sybert expressed another key to its success is the premier training facilities enjoyed by Richmond Hill and the large student body, which helps fill a massive roster of phenomenal athletic talent.
"At the end of the day, all these factors add up." said coach Sybert. He explained that there is a sure way of doing things to prepare the team, which helps build consistency across all levels.
The coach specifically wanted to highlight the fantastic community support around him, especially the military community. He said that all the students from military families possess a strong work ethic and the drive to succeed.
With only a couple of weeks remaining in the regular season, Coach Sybert pointed to an essential upcoming competition. You can catch the Richmond Hill Wildcats Track team at the "Stars-Mills" meet, facing off against 35 different schools. Coach Sybert recommends keeping an eye on their female team, which has a powerful group of athletes this year.
