Anoka Tri Results

Results for last nights Anoka Tri with Elk River are now posted on the right side of the blog.  There were, however, not overall meet results, so we cannot say for certain where we would have placed as a team.

What we did see is improvements in many areas, meaning we were taking advantage of the great weather, but also showing that the work they were able to put in over the past week is helping them.  There are some areas that we are growing the depth of the team and being more competitive in than we have in the past, but we still have a lot of work we want to do to make sure we are able to put forth the best possible team by the end of the season.

We are having practice today despite the weather.  Chances are that we will be inside for the majority of our events, if not all of them.

Thanks
Denny

Tuesday at Anoka

Tomorrow's meet at Anoka is now a Triangular with Elk River coming down.  The track is on the north side of the High School, with the first race starting at 3:45.  The only change in the order of events is that the 3200m run will be at the same time as the 4X800 at the beginning of the meet.  At this moment, we will not have anyone in the 3200m.  But, what this allows is for the meet to be completed at a faster time.  All other events will go on as normally scheduled (there is no time schedule).
If there are any questions, please let me know,
Thanks

Sartell Results

Our individual, as well as the overall meet results, are now posted on the right side of the blog for last nights Sartell Invite that was at St John's University.  Click onto the name of the meet and then inside that page at the top will be the overall results.

Despite being short handed, we had a solid night, especially with the short sprints with the girls taking 7 of the top 12 spots (less than a half a second apart) in the 60m Dash, led by the 2nd place finish of Mikayla de Souza and 3rd place finish of Courtney Killian and 4 of the top 5 in the 200m Dash with Mikayla winning and Grace Kehr taking 2nd.

Other top finishes went to Courtney Killian winning both the Long and Triple Jumps, Rachel Deters taking 2nd in the Shot Put, and Grace Kehr and Ali Hedlund tieing for 2nd in the Pole Vault.

Great night of races, many improvements and steps taken.  Next up is a Tri on Tuesday at Anoka vs. Elk River.  More info to come on Monday.

Thanks
Denny

Sartell Indoors

Below is the team list of who is competing and in which events for tomorrow's Sartell Invite that is now at St John's University in their Indoor facility.  The bus will be leaving at 4:45 with the meet starting at about 7:00.  There will be 3 teams and a reduced number of events, so it should go fairly quick.
The easiest way to get to St John's would be to get onto I94 West and exit at Exit 156, CR 159 (Abbey Road/135th Ave) and take a left.  Follow Abbey Road onto campus and take a left at Prep School Road and the building will be on your right.
Any questions, please let me know,
Thanks
Denny

Centennial Quad Results

Results for last nights Cenntenial Quad against Blaine and Irondale are now posted on the right side of the blog.  All of our results will be posted there and at the top is a link to the overall meet results as well. (Grace Henneman is missing in the 300 Hurdles, and she would have been 3rd overall).

The Girls finished in 3rd out of 4 teams and had some solid performances in a close battle for 2nd. Courtney Killian led the way for the Girls winning both the Long and Triple Jumps.  Second place finishes went to the 4x800 team of Abby Ellenbecker, Olivia Ellenbecker, Maddie Keran and Ava Kehr; Grace Henneman in the 100 Hurdles, Sarah Eichstadt in the 1600, and Rachel Deters in the Shot Put.

There were a lot of solid performances considering it was most of their first meet and with the conditions being a little brisk at times.  There is still a lot of room for improvement and now that we have a meet under us and we have a better feeling for what we have, we can start working more on what we need help in as well as help those that are off to good starts improve and advance themselves.

Thanks!
Denny
