Overall, Wylie’s outstanding results in district came from the sheer dedication and hard work of the students who put in the effort during and outside of school to practice for their event(s).  Proud of the results, many coaches are excited to see the performances of the ones who have advanced to regionals, which will take place on April 23 at Texas Tech University.
