***We're going to just add on to last week's post, since many didn't see the additions that were put on at the end of last week***
Another great week for the Panthers. The meets went very well, and we are off to an amazing start. We've got pics added to the blog from the first few meets, so check them out. And we have our sign ups to help at the meet for parents. Please take a look at all the info below. Also, Parents if you aren't getting our remind texts, please sign up
Athletes: text the message @trackprs to the number 81010
Parents: text the message @PVtrackfam to the number 81010
PV INVITE HELP: some more info will be posted on here on Monday about helping at the concession stand, with the coaches' dinner on Friday, and help at the meet. So check back here on Monday. We also need all our athletes to bring drinks for concessions. Boys please bring an 8 pack of gatorade/powerade 20 oz bottles (please get this size) whatever flavor. Girls please bring a pack of 16.9 oz water (24 pack or whatever). We need these by Wednesday if possible, so we can purchase any extras we might need.
SIGN UPS: Here is our official sign ups to help with Concessions and the Coach/Officials Dinner. We need a lot of help here. Parent's please sign up. We had a few parents volunteer to help from our "Parent Meeting". We haven't put you on the official list, so go on either (or both) of these sign ups and add yourselves.
Concession Stands: Parents please sign up to help (and if someone wants to kind of take the lead, please let us know, we have all the info to help you)
Coach/Officials Dinner: Parents please sign up to bring food and help serve (and again, if someone wants to kind of take the lead, let us know). We could also use some monitary donations to help pay for the meat. If you would like to help there, Venmo Coach Holt @Dave-Holt77 and label as "Invite Dinner" so that the money goes in the right place.
MEET RECAP:
JV @ Snow Canyon - A real solid first meet for our team. We had a lot of great performances to start the season. We are especially proud of our athletes out competing for the first time. We had four marks make our 2025 Performance Chart: Burkley's shot, Elsie's 100 and 200, and Julia's HJ; great job! We also had some good results in the sprints from Carson, and Freshman girls (Payton, Mia, and Payton). Results
Snow Canyon Invite - PV came out strong in our first Invite of the season. The girls ended as meet champions, and in the combined scores, PV took 2nd overall. Please take these positive vibes to friends and see if we can get a few more people out to the team. Tell your friends we'll work with them in their busy club sports schedules and everything else; we just need a few more people to take this team right to the top! We had some very notable performances this past weekend. Some of our best were two school records: Ashley in the 200 and Keira in the Disc! We had a ton of State Qualifiers (SQs) and a lot of finalists and point scorers. Let's take a second and give a huge shout-out to Tevye (1600 & 3200) and Mailey (disc) for hitting their SQs in their very first meet. We've updated our 2025 Performance Chart to reflect this first week (the purpose of this chart is to attempt to even out the results from all the different events and keep track of our top performances; it is just for fun, but it is pretty accurate and we've been using it since 2016, so it has a lot of our programs history on it). Our 43 marks hitting the chart is our 2nd most ever from one meet and includes 5 new girls marks on the all-time record board (also, the girls have 16 of the top 20 marks on the season! Way to go ladies!). Results
Kanab Invite - We had a great time over at Kanab this last Saturday. Despite some timing issues and delays, we recorded some great marks and represented PV very well. With our limited entries, both the girls and the boys teams took 2nd place. We also got some new SQs: Bridger and Emmalee in the 400, and Ethan in the shot. With also had a lot of event winners and new PRs. Results
NEW TRACK UNIFORM INFO:
New uniforms are in. We'll pick them up Monday. You have to have paid to get your new top. The cost for the new Nike top is $50 (if you are fundraising and hit the $100 mark, your top is free). If you haven't ordered shorts (this is done individually), please go back to the
previous post and check out the info for uniforms and ordering shorts.
FUNDRAISING:
One last call for fundraising. It is too late for sponsors to get on the Invite t-shirt; however, it is not too late to turn in business sponsors if they are still willing.
PV Invite Sponsors: Businesses can help sponsor the Invite for $50+. For this, the business receives its name listed on the back of the meet shirt, a link on our webpage, and being listed as an event sponsor on the meet program. Sponsors MUST be turned in to Coach Holt by Friday.
SMS Text and Social Media Campaign: Instead of using a company (like the last couple years), we will be using our PV Venmo to collect the money. The paperwork has an example message you could copy, a place to plan who to send messages to, as well as suggestions for including the Venmo on your text and social media posts.
For both types of donations, just make sure that any money sent to the PV Venmo is labeled "track sponsor - (your name)"
We've also included a list of incentives to help encourage you to participate.
$50 - PV Track and Field t-shirt
$100 - your new uniform top is paid for -or- 1 night hotel stay paid for
each extra $100 - another 1 night hotel stay paid for
$300 - PV Track and Field sweatshirt
Youth Program:
We are encouraging those who want to participate in a youth track program to join
Velocity Kids. Stay tuned for more info about opportunities for 6-8th graders to come to PVHS Track Camp. We will also be hosting a Youth Meet on April 22nd (reg. at 4:30p, start at 5:00p)
Schedule for the Week:
***If you're in town, be to practice. If you're out of town, do your best to be doing stuff each day. This is a big week to be getting some stuff in.
"Champions are made when no one is watching" - Muhammad Ali.
This is so true. Many people work when coaches and teammates are around or there is someone to impress. But those who really want to be great (and be great for their team and their friends), work just as hard (or harder) when there is no spotlight on them! ***
