Submitted / The Outlook Benjamin Russell's Reginald Sweetwyne, left, and Layton Bradford both qualified for the AHSAA Class 6A Cross Country Championship meet after Friday's sectional.

Over the last several years, Benjamin Russell’s track and field team has grown exponentially. The Wildcats started small but increased every year — both in numbers and in accomplishments — and a lot of that had to do with the Class of 2020 student-athletes.

Some were dedicated solely to track and field and cross country while others were multi-sport athletes but they all left their stamps on the program in one way or another.
