This site is dedicated to the memory of Steve Sims, a beloved girl's track and basketball coach at Grosse Ile High School for the past 25 years. Our sport lost a great man whose 99 consecutive dual meet winning streak and 412 basketball wins can never be quite appreciated the same.

This portion of michtrack.org has been handed over to Grosse Ile High School throws coach Dave Lustig. Please send all college confirmations and any other questions regarding "Where They Are Going 2003" to Dave Lustig.
