Back to Boys' Track

Lee Chaffee was a senior on the 1966 team, one of the best squads of all time. He held the discus record for 30 years and ranks among the top 10 in the shot put and high jump. He was also valedictorian, class president, a star in football and basketball, and arguably, the greatest student-athlete in PCS history.

Matt Swetland has become one of the top teachers of the shot and disc in Western New York. Matt has helped several throwers get to the state level, including Jon Jones, who became the NCAA college champion in 2015.

Like Lee Chaffee, Grant Milne has been one of the greatest student-athletes in the history of PCS. He has excelled in school, sports, and leadership roles.

At one time, Jake Haught ('02) was the greatest shot and disc man in history - #1 in the discus and #3 in the shot...before Jon Jones came along. Jake also starred on the gridiron and in hoops.

Discus-man Larry Welty became the Boys' Track and Field coach in 2002, the first year of the new track complex. Larry is the current High School Principal at PCS.

Tony Hammond was a star in football, basketball, and track...and his dad Dave dominated during the 70s.

The Keim brothers excelled in many sports during the 1990s.
