Announcement
On Friday, January 22, 2010, an army of athletes filled the main entrance of Northside College Prep, the northside cafeteria, and hallways, waiting for departure to North Park University for the 5th Annual King of the Shot Put. A special thanks to North Park University Head Track Coach Skip Stolley and staff, for hosting this great event.
Every member of the Northside Track & Field Team, regardless if they were a distance runner, thrower, sprinter, jumper, or hurdler, would particpate in three of 420 throws, in the World's largest Shot Put competion. Although the event was just a trial, the crowd was so large at Alford Indoor Track at North Park University, that spectators had to stand in the balcony of the stadium to see the Shot Put circle.
A year ago, Cody Rios finished in second place overall in King of the Shot Put. This year, Sophomore Cody Rios threw the shot put 30'10 to win the 2010 King of the Shot Put competition.
Freshman King of the Shot Put: Alex Park
Sophomore King of the Shot Put: Cody Rios
