BAKER ON THE TRACK
With all of his track medals, Baker's trophy case must be running out of room.

Baker would have a future in track and field if he chose not to pursue football at the next level.
As a sophomore, he stepped up to the varsity team and helped Bellevue capture several gold medals.
With another year of track remaining, he has a chance to improve on his already-impressive personal bests.
- Ran 10.77 seconds in the 100 meters as a junior, capturing a Class 3A state title.
- Finished fifth in the Class 3A 200 meters final as a sophomore, recording a time of 22.3.
- Helped Bellevue capture state titles in the 4x100 and the 4x400 in both his sophomore and junior seasons.
- Finished third in the state long jump finals, registering a jump of 22 feet, 8 1/4 inches.
