Sunny and comfortable. A blue sky with occasional puffs of wind. A perfect day for a track and field meet. A perfect day for unveiling a perfect setting -- the Mustangs’ new track. The boys and girls of South Effingham, Effingham County and Woodville-Tompkins were the first to line up in the starting blocks. The ECHS girls and SEHS boys captured the first team victories. But local track and field athletes will be the overall winners for years to come.  ![IMG_1504-1.jpg](https://blog.sportsturf.net/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_1504-1.jpg?width=320&name=IMG_1504-1.jpg)“Before we got the new track, it was just a vision,” SEHS track coach Laura Soles said. “I get so many compliments that (the track) makes our campus look like a college campus.
