Already one week (of cold weather) down. We are actually getting close to our first meet! So the season is in full swing, but we are still open to registration for those who haven't come out and want to.
Registration: Everyone needs to do their registermyathlete in the this week (found at registermyathlete.com). If you have competed in a sport at PVHS this school year, this will be an easy few clicks of the button and you'll be done. If you haven't competed in a sport this year, you will also need to get your PHYSICAL. This needs to be done ASAP. And finally, everyone needs to get his/her PARTICIPATION FEE paid. This can be done at PVHS, through registermyathlete, or at myschoolfees.com (I think). All these steps must be complete by the end of this week.
Meet Schedule: Check out the 2019 schedule on the link to the right.
Athletes of the Week: We will begin taking nominations for Athletes of the Week. Get your nominations in (via text or email). List the name and a short reason why he/she has earned it. These need to be submitted by Monday at lunch.
Schedule for the Week:
Monday - regular practice schedule with a team meeting in the PVHS lecture hall. (Distance runners check your schedule, for long run in the morning at 5:30a - wear white/bright clothing.)
Tuesday - Friday - regular practice schedule. If you plan on attending the State BBall tourney, make sure you talk with your event coaches and get your workout and do it as best as possible.
Athletes in Other Sports: Those of you are still finishing up a season, keep on doing great things. See you when your season is over. Those who finished recently, come on out to practice (even if you need a few days to recover before you get started, come out to practice and meet the coaches and the team, let us know your plans, and get your registration done).
Important Announcements for the PV Invite... please read - we'll leave this up here for a couple weeks... The dance has been moved to the Saturday of the PV Invite. It is imperative that ALL athletes are at the meet Friday and Saturday to help at the meet (on other dance/meet days, we will try and work schedules out as best as possible, but this time you MUST be there). So please plan your day date (or tell your dance date) with this in mind. Saturday meet clean up usually finishes by 2:00p. I know this is a pain, but PLEASE plan on being available to help.
Parent Help - We will need a lot of parent help at the Invite (March 22nd-23rd). If you are willing to volunteer to work in the concessions, at the timing tent, or with the field event weigh-ins, please let Coach Holt know ASAP (pineviewtrack@gmail.com or reply to the Remind text)
Youngsters: Practice for our 6th-8th grade developmental camp will be held Monday and Thursday from 3:00-4:00 at PVHS. Get paperwork at practice. Youth meet (for grades K-8th) schedule has been updated.
PV Alumni Update: Congrats to two outstanding PV track and field alumni from last year. Carson Horspool (Weber State) competed in his first Big Sky Indoor Conference Championships in the 5000 and 3000. And Celeste Fiame set the initial school record for Dixie State University in the javelin at her first outdoor meet with a throw of near 120 feet.
Thought of the Week: "Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can." -Arthur Ashe
Often our biggest fear of trying something new is that we aren't good enough. We'll tell you this - no one is good when they are just starting. It takes time, dedication, and commitment to become good at something. So as we start off a new season, we challenge each of you to grab a friend and challenge them to come get started at this track and field thing with you. And when they say, "Oh, I'm no good," remind them that all of us start somewhere and grow from there - even the very best!

Thought of the Week: "The beginning is the most important part of the work." - Plato
Right... you gotta start somewhere. And if you haven't yet, the time is now. Something that is tough to see as a teacher and coach is young students/athletes who are too afraid to start something. We all want to be great; but often we are afraid that we won't be great at the beginning, so we never start. However, once we realize that the actual start is the most important part of the process to whatever level of greatness we may achieve, we can set those fears aside and get on with the journey. And that is what the beginning of a season is in so many ways - the opportunity to set aside fears and get on the path to becoming our best selves. So... lace 'em up and let's get going - together; as Panthers!

Weeks of Dec. 17 - Jan. 6
Things are starting to come together for another great Panther track season!
- Distance Runners - On December 17 the distance runners will begin winter training. Practice starts at 3:00p down at the track. The focus of these few days before the Christmas break is to get you moving again and committed to running daily during the break. It is very important that the distance runners show up to practice before the break and then run during the break. Your workouts have been uploaded on to your Final Surge accounts (workouts can also be found here on the blog). Use your Final Surge to keep track of your running over the break. Those who don't record your workouts (either because you didn't run or just don't update your Final Surge) will begin workouts back at Week 1 in January when we come back from the break.
- Sprints and Field events - Your workouts will begin when we get back from the break.
An info packet with winter track info, spring schedule, fundraiser info, etc. will be available to pic up in Coach Holt's room at the HS or in Coach Decker's room at the MS.
Over the break, we encourage everyone to use this HIIT workout twice a week to work on strength and fitness as we start working into the season.
Remind - remember to sign up for our text message reminders by texting @trackprs to 81010
Also follow us on Twitter and Insta at @pvxctreack
Everyone who is doing swim, bball or wrestling, keep having a great season... we will see you in Feb or early March.
Thought of the week(s): "Winter break is a great test for athletes. Your coach and teammates are no longer with you. You're on your own. Times like these are what separate the good and the GREAT."
-Tyler Pence
A great thought to get us going and moving into the break. In April and May everyone is going to want to travel to Varsity meets in Salt Lake, everyone is going to be trying to hit Herriman and State Qualifiers, everyone is going to want to run Varsity at Region. But its a pretty safe bet, that the thing that separates those who accomplish these goals from those who don't will be the habits and the skills developed over the next few weeks when it seems like their is no urgency and it doesn't matter if I get my run in and my other workouts done or not...

State Week and Region Recap
Well... we've finally made it to the end. It has been an amazing season and we look forward to great things from our State Qualifiers this week up at BYU. We'll have one more post next week to finalize our season, but for now let's recap Region.
Region 9 Championships - A huge thanks to all those athletes and parents who came out to help run the meet. It was a little hectic trying to host over at another school (and maybe a bit more disorganized than we would have normally been), but things went smoothly and it was a good Region meet. The girls team had their best meet of the season and really pulled together to place a strong third. The boys team started very strong, but then missed a few opportunities with injuries and missing finals and slipped down to fifth in a very tightly packed finish from 2nd to 5th. Nonetheless, it was a solid Region finish to a very good season. Here's a list of all our top 8 finishers from Region: In the girls 3200 - Jessica 3rd, Rylee 6th, Ellie 7th; Boys 3200 - Nathan 5th, Scottie 6th, Mikey 8th; Girls 800 - Alli Region Champion!, Jacey 3rd and a State Qualifier, Caroline 8th; Boys 800 - Logan 3rd and a State Qualifier; Evan 5th; Girls Medley 6th; Boys Medley 7th; Girls 1600 - Jessica 6th, Jada 7th; Boys 1600 - Alex 2nd and a State Qualifier; Boys 110h - Jake 4th, James 7th; Boys 100 - Samson 7th; Boys 4x100 5th; Girls 400 - Alli 4th; Boys 400 - Samson 3rd, Macen 7th; Boys 300h - Jake 2nd, James 7th; Boys 200 - Samson 6th; Girls 4x400 4th and a State Qualifier; Boys 4x400 6th; Girls Long Jump -Teulia 5th; Girls Shot - Gina 6th; Girls Jav - Celeste 1st, Brynlee 6th, Demri 8th; Boys High Jump - Jakobe 8th; Boys Long Jump - Colin 3rd and a State Qualifier; Boys Shot - Raymond 7th; Boys Jav - Dylan 5th; and Girls High Jump - Claire 5th.
This Week's Schedule:
Monday - regular practice schedule. Those participating at State, alternates, and just anyone who wants to still work out with the team, just meet out at the track at 3:00 (no team meeting). Also, all 8th-11th graders: physicals for next year at the HS starting at 5:30. Pay at the HS Finance Office and bring pre-physical and consent for filled out and signed by parent!
Tuesday - regular practice schedule.
Wednesday - Bus will leave the HS after lunch for State - an itinerary will be sent home to those traveling with the team.
Thursday and Friday - Utah 4A State Championships at BYU. Schedule.
XC Runners - Please get physical and registermyathlete done for next season now! Also please get a captain recommendation form from Coach Roberts and have it filled out and returned by Wednesday morning!
Thought of the Week: "The reward for work well done is the opportunity to do more." - Jonas Salk. This quote makes us think of our track season in many ways: 1) those who have the opportunity to compete at State this week - you have done amazing things this year; let's go do a bit more! 2) everyone who has completed this season with our team - hopefully you have done everything within your power to have improved yourself as much as possible, and because of this, you have opened more doors for yourself and others around you to continue to do great things in all aspects of your life.
And as we get toward the end, just a cheesy sentimental thought from some old people to you young people... Thanks for all you have done. You truly are an inspiration to us and all those around you. I for one, leave each season very confident that this world is going to be a good place because I get to see our future leaders developing strengths and passions that are going push us all in the right direction. So remember... stand up for that which is right; be kind to everyone around you; and true joy comes not from material things, rather from the moments that you get to share with those whom you love. Our Seniors... please keep in contact with us and go do great things!
Oh... and Happy Mother's Day out there to all you awesome Moms who love and support your kids so much.

Week of May 7 - 12 and JV Region & Herriman Recaps
It is truly unbelievable that we are at this point in the season. It has been a great journey and has gone so quickly. We hope that you have found something amazing and a lot of joy as well. This week we have Region and we wish the best of luck to all our athletes who are participating. Before we get into all that, here's a recap of the last week:
JV Region at Canyon View: It wasn't a great day weather-wise, but we still had many of our athletes go out and do their best this past week at JV Region. Through the sleet and rain, Allison Brown set a PR in the 1600. Harrison and Cody both PR'ed in the LJ. Tanner PR'ed in the 3200. Carter PR'ed in the 1600. Jaron PR'ed in the 300h while placing 2nd and took 4th in the 110h. Madeline PR'ed in the 1600. And Sarah S. PR'ed and won the 3200. Carson, Tavin, and Jose all scored points in the 1600. Kathy medaled in the 400. Tavin, Boston, and Grant all placed top 8 in the 800. Sarah L. finished 6th in the 300h. And James and Tanner placed in the top 8 in the 3200.
Herriman Twilight Invite: We also had many great marks at Herriman on Friday evening. Jake improved on his State Q in the 110h. Jacey earned her State Qualifier while placing 5th in the 1600 and Jessica placed 7th. Alli improved on her 400 State Q and placed 2nd in the 400. Samson also placed 2nd in the 400 (where was also saw great races from Macen and Colin). Jake also improved his SQ in the 300h while placing 4th and is now one of only 8 guys in Utah to break 40 in the event. Jada ran a very strong 800 and took 4th and earned her State Qualifier. Caroline placed 8th in the event. Alex (1st), Logan (6th), and Evan (8th) all hit a SB or PR in the 800 and Alex's raced earned him a State Qualifier. Samson came out of the 2nd heat to PR, improve his SQ, and place 6th in the 200. And finally, Gracie had a nice PR in the 3200 to earn 4th and she was followed in by Ellie who placed 5th.
Athletes of the Week: Get your nominations in (via text or email).
Schedule for the Week:
Monday - regular practice schedule with a team meeting in the PVHS lecture hall. We need everyone at the team meeting (even if you are done racing for the season - we will discuss help at Region as well as finalize events for Region... we will have open spots in some events that JV athletes can fill in!). There is also the party Monday evening to discuss. (Distance runners check your schedule, it is a little different)
Tuesday - regular practice schedule.
Wednesday & Thursday - Region at Dixie. Because of our track condition (especially our LJ runway) Region has been moved to Dixie. We will still have a lot to do and we want everyone there to support our team, so please plan on coming. MS'ers will need to catch the first bus over to the HS after school and quickly get out front where the HS'ers will be waiting to get on the bus over to Dixie. We really, really want everyone to be there and staying throughout the meet to help support and cheer on our teammates! Schedule for Region can be found at the top of this link - Parents and athletes please note... this schedule will have more spacing than a usual meet, that is to help our athletes have time to recover in between events as best as possible.
Friday - regular practice schedule (and dungeon clean up - we need everyone there to help with this, please)
Saturday - distance crew will have a team workout for those advancing to State
NOTE TO ALL ATHLETES AND PARENTS: Thanks so much for an amazing year. This is going to be a watershed year for our program. In years to come, we will look back at this season and remember all the great things that took place as a time our program really moved in an important direction. There have been so many wonderful memories made. We appreciate our Seniors so much for all they have done and will miss them so much! Thanks again.
Thought of the Week: "Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it." - Greg Anderson
As we come to the end of the season, we hope that you will look back fondly on much of what has happened - even realizing that the difficult times were part of a greater journey. And as you move on to the next part of your journey, whatever it may be, strive to find pleasure and joy in all that you do.
XC Reminder - For those interested in XC next fall, please remember to get your registermyathlete complete and your physicals scheduled. First day of summer practice is June 4th, 7:00a and Washington Elementary.

Week of April 30 - May 5 and Cedar Invite & Tiger Trials
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.
Athletes of the Week: Get your nominations in (via text or email).

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.

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).
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.
