Senior captain Jack Bretthauer is excited about the upcoming indoor track season. He has goals to reach not only for himself but the rest of the team as well that he would like to accomplish this season. Bretthauer plans to compete in multiple different sprinting events, hopefully winning states and competing nationally again in both the 200 and 400 meter for his final high school indoor track season. Advocate Staff Reporter Logan Mullarkey interviewed Bretthauer about indoor track season.

Logan Mullarkey: What are your individual goals for this season?

Jack Bretthauer: I want to do really well at state this year in the 300 meter and 55 meter, hopefully winning the 300 meter at state. I also want to compete at Nationals again this year hopefully in both the 200 and 400 meter.

LM: What are you looking forward to this season?

JB: I think this is going to be a really fun season. Not only do we have a lot of great guys on the team but I also will be going to New York to compete at the Armory to attempt a national qualifying standard, which should be a lot of fun.

LM: What do you plan on doing after high school?

JB: I plan on running collegiate track next year after high school and studying finance in college.

LM: What are the jobs or goals you keep as a captain?

JB: My goal is to make sure that everyone is excited to come to practice everyday. Obviously not everyone likes running, but keeping all the guys motivated and excited to come to practice is a big deal for me.

LM: What are team goals for this season?

JB: We want to see everyone improving throughout the season and having everyone try out the events that they would like to try. We have a younger team this year, so finding what everyone likes to compete in is important as the team grows.
