MTC start the High School season with BIG THROWS
A huge thank you to the numerous athletes that committed to working hard this off-season and allowing Madison Throws Club to guide their training in the circle this past summer, fall, and winter.
Now it is time to compete. The 2015 Wisconsin high school season has begun and its a 12 week journey of adjustments and continued growth with your high school coaches. Best of luck to everyone, keep me posted on P.R.s!
Some throwers wasted no time to allow their hard work to shine through. 2 junior girls started the season with BIG THROWS. Harford's Samantha Noennig and Ashwaubenon's Kristine Lindow both have set new P.R.'s at early indoor meets. On Saturday, March 21, Noennig threw 45'4" at the Invite held at Carthage college. Her throw is the 24th best in Wisconsin prep history. Lindow wasted no time going 42'11" for a new P.R. in the shot put a few days later.
The Sam and Kris rank 1st and 2nd in the state. Karen Wethal and Holly Houston out to strong starts as well, both with early season P.R.'s. Keep track of the Girls STATE HONOR ROLL at Dave Figi's fantastic site covering Wisconsin Prep Girls Track and Field! www.wisconsintrackonline.com

So many good throws out there, so many good videos out there...
GLIDE SHOT PUT
ROTATIONAL SHOT PUT
I have been adding THROWING videos to my YouTube channel for the past 4 years...and counting...
I hope that you find some videos of throws that will help you with your own throws.
I think it is so important to take advantage of watching good technique, analyzing your own, and getting out there and throwing some more.
