April 3-8 & DH JV Meet & Hurr Invite Recap

We have reached the mid-point of our season, and we continue to see great things from those who are putting in the hard work and dedication necessary to be successful.
This past week was a busy one; we had multiple meets and a Youngsters meet.  A big thanks to everyone who stayed around and helped with the youth meet - it went very well and everyone helped a lot.

JV at DH: Despite the hassles (no bus; then a bus, but meet cancelled; then meet back on, but at DH), we ended up having a great meet.  We had great races from many of our athletes and recorded many season and personal records.  Our results are posted at athletic.net.  Some of our best performances were the boys 1-5 sweep in the 1600 with Mikey taking the win, followed by Evan, Colton, Nathan, and Corbin.  Corbin and Grant had a great battle in the 800.  Colin brought home a win in the 300h followed by Evan.  Brianna also won the 300h.  And Alli won the 3200.

Hurricane Invite: A windy and cold weekend at Hurricane saw three more State Q's for our team.  Dillan Robertson won the shot with the 5th furthest mark in Utah this season at 51-03.  Samson ran a very good 200 taking 3rd with a 23.18.  And Jacey placed 3rd in her first 3200 of the season running a 11:39.  Other strong performances came from Carli who ran a big PR in the 3200 to place 8th.  Xander who narrowly missed a State Q in his first 3200 ever and was just as close to qualifying in the 1600 as well.  Dillan's 4th place finish in the jav.  Caroline, Rylee and Jessica placing 2,3 and 5 in the 1600.

This coming week, we have two more meets.
Panther Relays: Tues at PVHS we host the Panther Relays.  This meet is all relay races and starts at 4:00.  Athletes need to be there at the usual practice time to help set up and get our relays set up.

Team BBQ: After the Relays, we will have a team BBQ and cook up some World Famous Panther Dogs.  Stay around after the meet and eat if you can.

Desert Hills Invite: Fri and Saturday is the DH Invite.  This invite is another State Qualifying meet, but we may have a few more spaces for entries than last week.  Our bus times will be the same as they were for last week.  On Friday, HS'ers are out after 4th at 1:35 and then we will go pick up the MS'ers who are out at 1:45.  On Saturday, the bus will leave the HS at 7:45a.  Remember, you MUST ride the bus over, but can come home with your guardian after checking out with the coaches.
