There was a lot to celebrate at last night's home track meet! First, and foremost, it was the inaugural meet on our new track!! Thanks to all of the amazing volunteers, I would say the meet went off without a hitch! Next, and maybe most impressive, both Gage Hickey and Piper Tyson threw OVER state qualifying distance in discus last night! Gage threw 45.17 meters (state qualifying is 43.05 meters). Piper threw 36.75 meters (state qualifying is 33.45 meters). Both Piper and Gage took first place in discus. Piper Tyson also took first place in shot put with a distance of 10.23 meters and second place in the 100M dash with a time of 17.1 seconds (first place was 17.0). Conner French took first place in the 100M dash with a time of 14.9 seconds. The boys 4X200 team made up of Austin Kretzinger, Kelten Olson, Carter Clark, and Conner French took first place with a time of 1:55.2. Austin Kretzinger took first place in long jump with a jump of 5.7 meters. Conner French took first place in triple jump with a jump of 11.4 meters. Gabby Anders and Karsyn Wilham both long jumped for the first time and took 2nd and 3rd places respectively. Once again, a track meet doesn't happen without a huge number of volunteers. We had an awful lot of MPHS teachers out there helping along with parents and community members and our coaching staff--Coach Cameron, Coach Tyson, and Coach Guy. Coach Clark had other obligations to attend to during the meet but his prep time prior to the meet getting the throwing sectors ready for competition was invaluable!! I appreciate you!! ~Coach Campbell
Recently, the Litchfield Baseball team has been helping support one of their local families. Angela is a Litchfield mom and is just starting her cancer journey. She continues to be hospitalized in the ICU.
She has two daughters at home and the Litchfield community is coming together to help in any way they can to support them. The MP community is proud to come along side them and support in any way we can as well.
Throughout Saturday's home baseball game you can donate to the family. There will be a donation box on the MP side and there is also a donation box on the Litchfield side. To make it a little fun, we encourage everyone to donate to your sides box for every hit your team gets! $1,$5,$10 per hit. Whatever you want to give!
Donations go directly to Angela's family to help with transportation expenses, groceries, and other household expenses. Any donation is appreciated.
The MPHS Track team is excited to host the FIRST MEET at our new track at Veteran's Park! VOLUNTEERS ARE STILL NEEDED so if you can help, please sign up here! SIGN UP SHEET

Math Problem of the Week!
Congratulations to our girls for making this year's All-Conference Team!
Students had the opportunity to tour the Capitol, visit the Senate chamber, and learn about the inner workings of state government. They also heard from lobbyists and policy experts about how legislation is shaped before taking part in their own mock committee debate. Mount Pulaski High School students were in attendance and are pictured here with Senator Turner.
