DETERMINATION




This picture really speaks for itself so I'll just give the background.

Another Leopard mom took this picture at the end of the 330 hurdles during Regional track in Moundridge, Friday, May 22nd.

Never before have I seen such a display of sheer will and determination to cross the finish line. I can't even describe to you seeing Marshall collide with track, in first place, only to realize he hadn't crossed the finish line. And then using what little strength he had left to launch his 220 lbs. frame 3 feet ahead and still grasp 3rd and a place at State in Wichita.

Brings tears to a sister's eyes.

I won't even go into the protest filed by the Inman coach. :S
