Athletes continue a tradition in the Treasure Valley
by Tyler Gibbons
Pocatello, Idaho – A familiar group of characters are ready to make an impression at Simplot Games, February 19-21.
Head coach Tim Severa and his YMCA Team Idaho will be making their 25 consecutive trip to Pocatello for the annual track and field indoor meet.
Severa co-founded Team Idaho 31 years ago in 1978 and has been at the forefront of youth track and field in the Treasure Valley since.
This year’s team is 55 athletes strong and contains competitors like Nicole Nielsen (1600 meters) and Kasen Covington (long jump) who have their eyes on reaching the podium.
“Simplot is a great event that’s very well organized,” Severa said. “The forum gives our kids some national exposure and a good stepping stone for their upcoming outdoor seasons.”
