Friday Results

Our Individual results are posted on the right side of the blog and once I get a link to the Overall results I will add them as well.

On a nice, chilly afternoon/evening, we had by far our best overall meet on the season, despite not having our top two boys and top girl not running.  With 31 of the 38 who ran today running all time or season personal bests, it is hard to complain about losing to two of the top teams in the conference and section on both sides.  And after the struggle that we had last week, it was a very big positive in their development as well as in their confidence as we go into the last two weeks of the season.

Top finishers for the Boys were Aaron and Ryan who continue to make big improvements from last year.  Big movers on the team today, whether by place on the team or in time went to Lachlan, Josh H, Nate, and Jacob with many more have big improvement days.  The Boys are really in a rebuild after losing 5 of our top 7 from last year, but the youth (Sophomores and under) are really developing nicely and good become a factor as a team again next year if they continue working the way they have been.

Top finishers for the Girls were Lilah and Zoe who raced it out to the finish line and led the vastly improved, yet still young and inexperienced team.  The biggest mover on the day for the Girls in both tim and team placement was Stella, having dropped almost 4 minutes and 7 from last week! The Girls are getting stronger every day, not only in their running but in their bond for each other and it has been fun to see them having so much pride in themselves and doing the best that they can.

We hope to build off of this confidence and move forward as a team and in individual growth.  I will post our Conference runners as well as meet information for both the Varsity meet on Wednesday and the JV meet on Thursday some time on Sunday.

Thanks for the parents that came out tonight and for all of the support!!
