Boys: Dover 82, Louisville 45
Louisville Track and Field celebrated our 20 senior athletes before the track meet last night. We have been so fortunate to have such a great group of senior, and we value all of the hard work and sacrifices they have given us over the years. You are going to be missed.
On the track the boys team ran a reduced line up in preparation for the Stark County meet this Saturday and came up short against the Dover Tornados. The score was 45 – 82.
