Good job at a great Region meet. Thanks to all those who came out and helped out with anything. And let's also give a quick shout-out to our State Champion Boys Volleyball team! Great job guys - especially Spencer, Brock, and Brodie! Now we shift our focus to State for this final week of track.
A couple announcements:
- State hoodies - preorder yours here if you want one.
- If you'd like professional-level pics of yourself at State, check out this guy's stuff. He is offering coverage at $35/athlete (and will drop it to $25/athlete if a team gets 10 athletes to sign up). We are leaving this up to you to plan and organize if you want to do it.

Quote of the Week -
"Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity, but doing it."
- Greg Anderson
Maybe a weird quote at the end of the season and we have accomplished great things and are looking to even do better at State, but ultimately no matter what happens at State, this season has been amazing. The growth of each of you individually and as a team, seeing your joy in accomplishing PRs and things that you may not have even thought were possible, forming memories that will last a lifetime - these are the things that this is all about. So as we approach State, now is not a time to stress and be worried. You've done all the work you can do. No is a time to relax and have some fun! Let's go give it our best shot and make some more memories in the process.
