The DeSoto team is one of the best combined high school boys & girls sprint track programs in the entire country. Their girls have already made the US all time list in the 2016 outdoor track season, while the boys rank as the #7 4x100m team of all time with their 40.09 in 2012.
After a series of unfortunate injuries and setbacks, the last time either DeSoto team has won a Texas team State Championship was 2013(Girls) and 2012(Boys).
