Cambridge JV

So here is the basics for the JV Meet that we added for tomorrow, Monday, at Cambridge.  The meet will begin at 4:00, with our bus leaving at 2:30, thus the athletes will get out at 2:10.

What we are thinking with this meet, is that it is an open meet for our JV athletes, meaning, those that want to get another race in, or another attempt at a field event, will get that chance.  If there are those that are a bit worn out, or have lots of school work or other events (band/choir concerts), then they are allowed to shut down.  It is something that happens, and for those that are new to Varsity sports sometimes get a bit worn down, so we are not going to stress over it.

Here are the basic directions:
Go East on Main Street to Hwy 65 and go North to Cambridge.  Once to Cambridge, exit onto 1st Ave and take a left.  Go through town and take a right onto Cypress St. N, and take a right.  School and track will be at the end of Cypress St.

If there are any questions, please let me know,
Thanks,
Denny

JV Conference

everything is good to go for today's JV Conference Meet at Elk River. First race will be at 3:45 and the meet should move pretty quickly. Weather should not be an issue, just 20 some degrees cooler than Tuesday's meet!

One other item that came up yesterday is that we were asked to go to a JV Meet on Monday in Cambridge. I do not currently have all of the details right now, but we did accept the invite, thus our JV athletes will get one more meet in this season. Once more is known, I will send out that info on the blog and email.

If there are any questions, please let me know,
Thanks,
Denny

Armstrong Tri Results

Our individual results are now posted.  There were no overall meet results, but based on what we saw, we had would have placed well in many events.  There were a few events that we struggled, much of that to do with the heat and really the first time this year that we had some very uncomfortable weather.  But, we did have some very solid performances as well, showing us that we are moving in the right direction for the end of the season.

Next up is the JV Conference Meet on Thursday at Elk River.  This will be a meet that final decisions for the Conference Meet are made, as well as who we might look at for the Section Meet.  It's all one final chance for many of the girls to set season or personal records in their event(s).  It's always a good meet for the JV Girls to end their season, so we are hoping for more positives this year!

Any questions on anything, please let me know,
Thanks,
Denny

Armstrong Tri. vs. Blaine

Everything is still a go for today's meet at Armstrong vs Blaine.  If there are any changes, due to the weather, I will let you know as soon as I can.  Meet time is 3:45.

But it is a regularly scheduled meet, with open number of athletes in each event, meaning we can run as many as we want.

Here are the directions:
Armstrong High School: 10635 36th Ave North, Plymouth, MN 55441. Go East on Hwy 10 to Hwy 610 West until you get to Hwy 169 South. Go South to 36th Ave North, and take a right.  School will be on the left about ½ mile from Hwy 169.
