Midco Coverage/Coaches Poll

  • April 16, 2016

Thanks to Midco Sports Network and their resident track and field expert, Alex Heinert, high school track and field in North Dakota and South Dakota will receive some fantastic coverage this spring. Check out their initial season preview here: Midco Sports Track Preview

Another great feature to follow all season will be the “Varsity Sports” Platinum Leaderboard. Alex Heinert and Midco Sports will keep track of the top performances across all events in North Dakota and South Dakota. At the end of the season, platinum medals will be awarded to the top athlete in each event. This is part of their continued effort to “tear down the borders” between North and South Dakota and provide some friendly competition with our neighbors to the South. See the first Platinum Leaderboard here:
