We want to thank all of you (athletes and parents) for all that you have each done to make this such a great year. It really has been one of the most memorable we have ever had. Great kids, great attitudes, great effort, great performances, and on and on. Thanks again. This week will see the end of our JV season (except those competing at Varsity Region), our final Youth meet, as well as our trip to Herriman.
Here's a little recap of the last week:
Cedar Invite: About 1/2 the team headed to Cedar this weekend for the Cedar Invite. PR's were tough to come by in the very windy conditions. Some highlights were Brizbin's PR in the Shot and SB in the disc; Cooper and Tanner PR'ing in the 3200; Josh H., Preston, Teuila and Maddy PR'ing and Kobe's SB in the LJ; Boston's PR in the 400; Doug's and Makana's PR's in the jav; Carter's PR in the 1600; and Sarah's PR in the 100. Also, Gracie, Jenna, Pyper and Jenessa all placed in the top 8 in the 3200.
Orem Invite: The other 1/2 of the team went up north to Orem for the Tiger Trials. For a smaller squad, we had a great showing. Alli started us off with a 5th place finish in the 1600. Jake State Qualified breaking 16 for the first time in his 110's and took 2nd in the 300's. Dylan set a new PR for a 2nd place finish in the jav. Celeste also set a big new PR in the jav for the win. The girls medley relay of NeNe, Kathya, Alli, and Jacey won and got the State Qualifier. Raymond put a great shot and took 5th. Nick had a tremendous PR in the disc to take 2nd and State Qualify. And the boys 4x400 fought the wind to get a State Qualifier.

Schedule for the Week:
Monday - regular practice schedule with a team meeting in the PVHS lecture hall. (Distance runners check your schedule, it is a little different)
Tuesday - JV Region at CVHS. HS out at 1:00 and MS out at 1:10. Everyone needs to see the important info below, but for those not competing at Varsity Region or Herriman, this is your final meet of the season. Let's get out there and end the season on a fantastic note! Schedule of events.
Wednesday - regular practice and our final Youth Meet (please plan on staying and helping).
Thursday - regular practice schedule.
Friday & Saturday - Herriman Invite at HHS. Here is a link to the schedule. (Note the entry for for spectators.) This is a Varsity meet where we will only take invited qualifiers. Bus/Release Schedule: Everyone traveling with the team will be excused all Friday. We will leave from the HS at 8:15a. The meet is on Friday and then we will stay overnight and head home Saturday morning. A full itinerary will be sent home with the athletes who are invited to make the trip early in the week.
NOTE TO ALL ATHLETES AND PARENTS: As your season comes to an end (either with JV Region or Herriman) we still need all of your help. First, we need your help at the Youth Meet on Wednesday. Secondly, AND SO IMPORTANT, we need your help at Region on May 9th and 10th. All PV Track and Field athletes are expected to attend and help at the Region Championships. We would love you to continue to practice with the team until then if you would like, or not. But we need you to attend Region and help staff the meet (The staffing assignments will be made at next week's Monday afternoon team meeting - everyone please plan on attending). Thirdly, we will have a team ice cream party and awards night after Region and want everyone to attend. More info will be coming out about that.
Thought of the Week: "Beginning well is a momentary thing; finishing well is a lifelong thing." - Ravi Zacharias
You know... everyone can start something. It takes a very special person to actually finish it. Let's finish this season well, and let's all take the lessons we have learned from this season and put them into our lives and keep striving to be the very best person each of us can be.
A little XC Info - For those interested in XC next fall, we will have a MANDATORY PARENT/ATHLETE MEETING Thursday, May 3rd, at 7:00pm in the Lecture Hall at PVHS. It is very important that a parent and the athlete attend. We will discuss many important things for the upcoming season. This is for all incoming 9th-12th graders. Please spread the word. (We will also be looking for XC athletes who can go down to the middle school to help recruit on Tuesday? morning, so check your schedule).
