April 10-15 and DesHill Invite Recap

Well, no one got blown away by the wind this past weekend, so that was good.  It was a windy meet over at DH, but we still did well.  Our top finishers were Jacey in the 1600 taking 4th, Dillan taking 2nd in the shot, Alex bouncing back from his spiking last week and taking 4th in the 800, and Julien taking 4th in the 1600 and hitting his State Q!  Jacobe had a good meet and made finals in both the LJ and the jav.  Xander grabbed a point in the 1600 with an 8th place finish.  Samson placed a solid 5th in the 200.  We also saw seasons best from Caroline in the 1600 and Josie in the 800.  Hopefully we can catch some decent weather this week and really show how much we have improved so far this year.

We've got a very busy short week:

Monday - Level 2 and 3 distance runners will meet at 5:30a for practice.  As usual, make sure you have your camp yellow or white shirts on.
We will also finalize sign-ups for the JV meet and the DH Multi's and Distance Carnie at our team meeting on Monday afternoon, so make sure you are there.

Tuesday - JV race at Hurricane.  HS will be out at 2:15 to go catch the bus; MS out at 2:20.  We need to be to the MS before school is out, so don't take too long getting ready, please.  The meet starts at 4:00.  And as usual, you can catch a ride home with your parent/guardian if he/she is there to pick you up once your events are finished.

Wednesday - We host are last K-8th meet.  Level 2 and 3 distance runners will meet for AM practice at 6:00a to get our workout in, so that we can be there to help at the meet.  We MUST have everyone stick around and help out at the meet!  PLEASE!

Thursday - This is the first day of the DH Multi's and Distance Carnie.  Right now we have schedule for the HS to be out at 1:35 and then the MS out a 1:45.  However, the meet changed to a 4:00p start, so we will see if we can move our bus back and not have to miss class.  Updates will come via text.  Those who aren't competing Thursday will have practice at the usual time.

Friday - NO SCHOOL / Day 2 of the DH Multi's and Distance Carnie.  Bus will leave from PVHS at 7:45a (no MS pickup).  Meet starts at 9:00a.

Next week Monday, we also don't have school.  Check with your event coaches to see how your practice will be scheduled.

Just wanted to let everyone know how proud we coaches are of all of you athletes.  You really are doing great things and representing your school well.  Keep up the hard work for the next 1 1/2 months!  Keep up in the classroom and out on the track.  Get the rest you need.  Eat healthy.  Drink plenty of water (it is getting warm).  Be good influences on each other and those you come in contact with.  Doing these things will guarantee continued improvement.  We promise, good things come to those who work for it... so keep working!
