The BYU meet gave us a good starting point, knowing that we have only had two weeks of practice (5 days really) before this meet we are very pleased with this meet.  Thank you to those of you who took on the challenge and ran events that you didn’t want to. Thank you for being willing to step up for the relays & to be willing to run and not caring which leg or which relay. Thank you. Thank you for all of you for giving up your Friday night and your Saturday to compete in this meet. Thank you. Know that the hard work you put into practice will pay off and the marks you set this weekend will only improve from this point. Now TEAM we hope you all will take full advantage of these indoor meets. This is one of the only times you will get a chance to run the full distances on a track. It is also a chance for you to cash in your hard work. Our next meet is this Friday & Saturday at Weber State University. Details are $4 for first event & $2 for each additional event. The meet schedule is attached below. Please let Coach Wyatt know if you are planning to attend this meet before end of practice Thursday.

Practice will run as it has for the last two weeks. (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday 3:00pm at athletic commons)  If you have any questions about practice places and times please ask any one of the coaches. There are also track & field Fundraisers that we do by working the snack shack for the home basketball games. The funds earned go to our TEAM. Please be willing to take part in these opportunities. Tuesday the 17th is our next chance.
