Thank You

Thank you to everyone for a wonderful season.  It was not a perfect season, but one in which there was success and hopefully much was learned!  We wish all of the Seniors all the best as they move on in life and hope that they are able to continue to grow.

One final announcement, anyone that is interested in working on their speed, Coach Sullivan, the boys coach, will be meeting at the track every Tuesday night from 6-7pm.  It would be an opportunity for anyone still wanting to work and develop and is looking to move up next year.  The cost would be $5 a night and I am sure he will have beverages for everyone each night as well.

To go along with this, Coach Coauette, our Throws coach, will be at the track on the same nights, same time, so if any thrower, or anyone you may know that would be interested in throwing, would like to do some work, he will be there as well.

Thanks again and if there is anything anyone has any questions about, please let me know,
Denny Green

4x400 6th at State

Congratulations to Amber Harris, Brianna Clarke, Rozlynn Lund, and Kalley Kalley Harris as they finished the season with a 6th place finish in the 4x400m Relay at the State Track Field Meet on Saturday. The girls finished with the second fastest time in school history, just missing their record setting time from the prelims on Friday by less than a second!  It was a fun race to watch and the girls never gave up! Great work girls!

State Meet Friday

Below is the time schedule for Friday's State Meet.  There is an admission to go, plus parking is going to be a lot more difficult.  If you are planning on going, plan on arriving well in advance and know that you may have to park at the State Fair Grounds and take a bus over. 
Admission is:$10 for adults, $7 for students.
Here is what the State has sent us in regards to parking:
Parking is available at no cost a the MN State Fairgrounds. Take the free shuttle to Hamline University, a five-minute ride. The shuttle will drip off and pick up on Hewitt Avenue near the State Meet Ticket Booth and will run every 10 minutes.
FROM HAMLINE UNIVERSITY: following Snelling Avenue north over the bridge. Exit on Como Avenue and turn left. Enter through Gate 19 on your left. Parking is in Block 55. The shuttle will pick up and drop off at the entrance of this lot. The shuttle will run from 7:30 a.m. - 7:00 p.m.
Lastly, both the 300m IM Hurdles and the 4x400m Relay will be run on Friday as a Prelim.  The girls will need to qualify in order to compete in the Finals on Saturday.  For the 300's, there will be 3 heats and the girls will need to be either in the top 2 in their heat, or one of the next fastest 3 remaining individuals to move on.  In the 4x400m Relay, there will be 2 heats, and the girls will need to place in the top 2 in their heat or be one of the 5 fastest remaining teams.  9 in each event will move on to the finals.
If you have any questions, please let me know,
Thanks
