End of Season

As we close out the 2018 Track and Field Season with Brielle finishing with a season best in the 100m at the State Track and Field Meet on Friday, we now look to bringing it all to a close on Monday evening at our Banquet.  Please remember that we will be at the High School Cafeteria at 6:00.  I am putting all of the basic info below to help.  If there is anyone that still has their uniforms, please remember to bring those as well.

But, as we move forward and look to the future, each of those that plan to come back next year should look at how they did this year and what they are thinking of as their goals for the next track and field season and how they want to get there.  We have a lot of youth and potential, so we as coaches will be doing what we can to help them when we get to the season next year, but the question always becomes what can the athletes do to help themselves before the season starts.  The biggest thing with this is to be active, whether that is in another sport or being apart of the after school strength and conditioning program at the high school.  Don't over do it, but by keeping active, especially at an age of much growth and development, will help start the season stronger, and thus give themselves a better opportunity to finish better than this year.

If there are any questions to help with this, please let me know.

Thanks for all of the support this year and we hope to see you tomorrow evening at the banquet!

Section Results

Congratulations to Brielle as she qualified for the State Meet, finishing 2nd place in the 100m dash! This is her second year of qualifying and will compete next Friday at Hamline in the prelims with a chance to be in the finals next Saturday.

Congratulations to all of the girls that competed this week. We finished in solid eith place of 16 teams, but it was a much better all around meet than we had the week before. We had many season bests at the Section Meet and many girls make it onto the podium for their events.  All four of relays had season best times as well, making for many positives as we build for next year.

 Brielle also was a podium finisher in the 200m, finishing fourth, but also joining her for their events were: Camika finishing 3rd in Pole Vault, with Hannah in fifth; all three of our Shot Putters made the finals and were on the podium, led by Ellie in fifth, Rachel in seventh, and Dola in 9th; Grace was a double podium finisher as well, finishing fifth in the 300 Hurdles and seventh in the 100 Hurdles; the 4x800 relay team of Alaina, Abby, Olivia, and Sarah gained a spot on the podium with a fifth place finish as well.
Results can be found by clicking on Wayzata Results above. I'll have our individual results up a little later.
Also, a reminder that uniform turn in is on Monday after school, as well as team voting.
Great work to all of the girls!
