Section 5AA Meet

Below is some basic information as well as the time schedule for Wednesday's Section Prelims at Hamline University.  Also, being that this meet is at Hamline University,there are a couple of parking lots near the track, but chances are you will need to park on the street, and sometimes this will be a long walk.  So please plan accordingly.
Once again, only 3 field events (Long Jump, High Jump, Discus) will be completed on Day 1 and no relays or the 1600m will be competed on Day 1.
There will also be an admission fee, (cannot find the amount in the information given, but will find out), and T-shirt sales.
Any questions, please let me know,
Thanks

Conference Results

Results for this weeks NWSC Meet can be found on Raceberry Jam, which you can click on above. 
Yesterday was a very positive day for the team and one in which we finished very solidly in the 14 team meet.  Points were hard to come by overall, but we moved up in most events and were able to finish in 5th place, less than 5 points out of 3rd, and less than 20 out of 1st, which is really only 2 events, which lets us know that we are close.
All Conference Honors went to the following girls:
Kalley Harris 2nd in both the 100 Hurdles and the 300 Low Hurdles
Brielle Clarke 2nd in the 100m Dash and 3rd in High Jump
Allie Stalboerger 2nd in the 200m Dash

Monday Info

A reminder for those going to the meet tomorrow, whether competing or helping, you will be getting out of class after 4th hour and the bus will leave at 1:30. 
One thing to pay attention to is the weather for tomorrow. As of right now, it appears to be an overcast day with temps in the 40's or low 50's. With that in mind, if you are someone who will be wearing an undergarment under your uniform, it has to be one color with stitching that is the same color. We as a team have gone with black for undergarments, so please make every attempt to go this route.  If you do not have that color, please use one of the other two school colors.  Also, please come prepared with warm clothes. We won't be there for too long, but long enough.
If you have any questions, please let me know,
Thanks,
Denny

Conference Prelims

Below is the schedule for Monday's Northwest Suburban Conference Prelims.  Remember that the meet is at Irondale High School on Monday (directions below), but Coon Rapids on Tuesday and Thursday.  The Girls will only be competing on Monday and Thursday.   With the exception of the 3200 and the Field Events, all of these events are prelims and the top runners will move onto the Finals on Thursday.  In all of the events the winner of each heat the next 2 fastest overall runners will be moving onto the Finals for a total of 8 in the Finals, except for the 800m which is the top 3 in each and the next 3 overall fastest.
We will be bringing a few extra girls to help with the Hurdles at Irondale for Monday, but then on Tuesday and Thursday we will be needing the girls to help as well. On Tuesday we will need girls helping with the concession stand and hurdles and Thursday we will need girls to help with concession stand.  If we could get a couple of parents to help with the concession stand on both day, that would be great.  If you would like to help, please let me know.
If you would like to see the Heat Sheets (Heat, Lane Assignments for everyone competing) you can go onto Raceberryjam above and look under Northwest Suburban Conference Meet and you will see a place to look at those.
Finally, I will get our results for Friday's JV Conference Meet out a little later.  There were no overall results, but it was a very positive day for the girls and it was a good way for many of them to finish their seasons.  I know that the girls were having fun, and that is the biggest thing for me.
Any questions, please let me know,
Thanks
Denny
