***Tickets to State for Parents/Fam/Fans***

Great job at Region everyone. Congrats to all our Region placers and medalists, to our State Qualifiers, and to the girls for the absolutely dominant win! And before we go too far, thanks to all those who helped out with the Ironman. Some of the jobs were boring and others kept you on your toes, but thanks for being there and willing to help support our team.

Now it's time to get that final push for State. We will have a team meeting at 3:00p in the PV lecture hall tomorrow. We'll go over events, strategy, and a few other things to get prepped. Check back here on Monday or Tuesday for the full itinerary for this coming weekend. We will take a few alternates for our relays and (maybe, if there are spots on the bus and in the hotel) a few others up with us. So make sure you're around if you want that to be you. 

*please note - please check sporttrax to make sure we didn't miss any qualifiers. Entries have to be in by Sunday evening, so we need mistakes caught before then.*

We greatly appreciate the parents working to get things (food and drinks) together for our athletes up at State. Here's the message from Randi if you didn't get it:

Hi parents,

This is Randi Conrad I was hoping to get some help providing sandwiches, healthy snacks and drinks for our athletes this year for state track.  BYU doesn't have many options for our athletes and I feel our athletes will do even more amazing if we could help them out with food at the meet. 

I will need to borrow some big coolers

I will gladly accept donations of drinks, snacks and money. 

I think fruit and vegetables would be an amazing things to have available.

I won't be able to do this without everybody's help. I'm not sure where to start and  I would love any ideas or suggestions you have.

My email is jadeandrandi@gmail.com 

You can text me (435)632-4277 my Venmo is @Ran-con

Thank you, I'm so excited for our team this year!
