The Delta Hawks have a long history of successfully qualifying athletes and teams to national championship events in both cross country and track. We find that the runners who get to compete at the highest levels learn critical lifelong lessons and make memories that will last forever.

Starting next week, we will continue to have practices for those who want to keep training with us. The practices will follow 2 tracks: a "championship season" for those who want to try and qualify for USATF Junior Olympics and an "off-season" for those wh

PLEASE NOTE: We will have our combined practice on Monday, 6/1, at the River City High School Track in West Sacramento. Wednesday’s practices will be at the regular Davis and West Sac locations.

But before I get to listing some of the biggest performances, I think it is important to remind everyone that one

PLEASE NOTE: We will have regular practice on Monday, 5/25, at the Davis and West Sac locations. Wednesday’s practice will be at UC Davis’ track. What a big meet for the Hawks in Modesto this weekend! The Tom Moore Classic lived up to its great history, with good weather and fast competition.

PLEASE NOTE: Monday’s Practice is combined for Davis and West Sac athletes at River City High School! Wednesday will be separate practices in Davis and West Sac.

This week our flying Hawks took to the track for the second time at Inderkum, and once again we saw a significant number of personal bests! From David Rodriguez running his first sub 5-minute 1500m to Cam getting under 7 minutes for the first time, nearly all of our Hawks continue to see improvement from week to week. In addition, we had some medal-winning performances! Hawks placing in the top three in their age group to earn hardware include: Cypress Connelly (3rd in 9-10 g

It may be hard to believe, but we are already in the second half of our track season. Our runners are hitting their strides, getting faster and stronger, and learning how to race. Now we get more serious. This past weekend our runners got to participate in a low-key intrasquad meet – a great entry point for some and a fun way to lift each other up as a team. Even without other teams to push us, we still had a whole slew of PRs! Way to go, Hawks! Our next competition is an

The Hawks competed this weekend at the Glenn Rogers Distance Carnival, running in both the 800m and the 1600m Middle School events. As we like to remind our athletes, every race is ultimately against yourself, so it didn’t matter how many older kids might cross the line before you. Given that, we had an AMAZING meet, with almost every Hawks running a PR! And of those few who didn’t quite run their fastest times ever, the effort and drive was apparent on their smiling little f

The conditions could not have been better for the Halden Youth/Middle School 1600m on Saturday in Davis! Thin clouds kept the heat low, while a cool northern breeze was enough to stir the heart but not impact the running. The crowd was large and music was energetic, so our Hawks were really feeling the moment. All this adds up to a spectacular day for our runners, and some amazing improvements!
