While following the rules of golf, students use a soccer ball to practice kicking, control, and precision. It’s a great way to build skills while having fun and staying active!





Meet Quentin Nauman, a standout athlete at Western Dubuque High School! 🏃
Quentin recently achieved what few high school runners ever do: he ran under 1:50 in the 800 meters and under 4:00 in the 1600 meters in the same meet. On top of that, he claimed multiple state titles and earned the Gatorade Iowa Boys Track & Field Player of the Year award.
But his story isn’t just about times and medals. It’s about getting better every day, pushing through competition, and setting a standard of excellence for his teammates. We’re proud to highlight Quentin’s journey and the inspiration he’s bringing to our schools. We will be cheering for Quentin as he competes for another state cross country title on Friday!
