COLD,WINDY AND NASTY.. That pretty much defines the meet this past w/end.. We got out of there with no injuries.. Most important.. There were 4 notable performances..In some of the worst conditions possible. 

Grace Tilearcio – in the 3xMile she was 80 meters behind when she got the baton, ran her best race of this early spring season. 10 more meters and she would of caught the winner..

Kevin Joyce – 400h…60.4  windy conditions make going over hurdles very tough ..Nice start for your 1st race

Throwers Relay.. 4 x 100. 52.6.. It may come in handy having big guys who run like Forest Gump..

All Frosh/Soph runners – not one wimper about the conditions. they just ran their heart out.

Our past fundraisers have been very important to our team..

Students CANNOT sell the sponsorships during school time. Thank You ,Coach Lee and Coach Aamanda
