Another good building week for PV Track. Dixie Invite saw some very solid performances from our sprints and field events, and the distance runners threw out some exciting performances as well. Our 200/400 guys ran very well (Samson - 5th place 200; PR's from Jacob, Michael, Colin, Colton, and Macen). Add a PR for Kaylani in the 100 and the sprint squad set the tone for a good meet. Jakobe hit a PR in the jav and scored for the team. Amelia tied her PR in the HJ and made finals in the LJ to score well for the team. Colin hit a season's best LJ and took 3rd. And Celeste placed in the jav finals to mark a strong meet for the field events. In the distance races, Jacey ran a good 1600 taking 4th; Rylee and Ellie went 3 and 4 in the 3200 setting season's and personal bests respectively. Nearly the whole guys 3200 crew PR'ed with Carson taking 7th, Xander crushing his PR by 14 seconds and qualifying for State and taking 8th, and Julien and Mitch slipping in PR's as well. The 800 saw Jacey run a great race - state qualifying and placing 3rd; Caroline taking 5th and Josie hitting a season's best. Jada and Jessica also ran great races and PR'ed. And in the boys 800, Logan and Colton ran their best races of the year and are just off of state qualifying. Overall, it was a great meet, and we continue to improve at the time of the year when PR's, Herriman Qualifying, and State Qualifying marks are all out there to get. Everyone has worked extremely hard this year and deserves them, so "Jump out de plane!"
