The countdown of the Top 10 sports moments from Newton High School during the 2025-2026 school year hits #8 today, with the Cardinal girls track and field team getting a 6th place finish in the 4×100 shuttle hurdle relay at the Iowa State Track and Field Meet. Karsten and Klein are expected to return to the Newton track and field team next season, while Sims and White have graduated. White also participated in swimming and basketball for Newton, but will be continuing a track and field career at Minnesota State University-Moorehead. I feel like I have excelled at track and been more of a standout I’d say.” Sims will also be a college athlete, as she’s signed to play softball for Bellevue University in Bellevue, Nebraska.
