Friday Meet Cancelled

First off, the meet on Friday, the Cambridge Invite, has been cancelled due to snow/water cover at the Cambridge Track.  The meet has been rescheduled to Friday, May 10 (yep, the fishing opener weekend), but we have declined to go, and not because of the fishing, but because we are looking for a good practice day at that time.

Second, there will not be any overall results for last nights meet, but the Centennial coach did keep score throughout the meet yesterday and the Coon Rapids Girls came in 1st!!  Despite the change in some events, the harsher breathing conditions from being inside, and the bit of chaos from having that many people in such a smaller area, it was a very positive start.  It was good for the girls to have the competition type setting and to be going against two other schools.  There was a bit of a different energy compared to the practices, so even though it was more of Time Trial/Scrimmage, it was a good time.  We found somethings that we can build off of and a few areas that we need to work on, especially now that we can start being outside, so we will continue to move forward and see what we can do.

Lastly, as of right now our meet next Tuesday at Centennial is still being planned.  The Centennial coach mentioned that the Track is clear, as are most of the areas, but they are hoping for things to dry out a little more.  Look for us to be going there next week and facing the same two teams.  This will be day that we will figure out who will be competing at next Friday's Irondale Twilight, which will be a meet in which we are limited on the number of athletes that can be in each event.

Any questions, please let me know
Thanks
Denny
