Golden Eagles –
Well with 1/3 of our state qualifying meets out of the way our TEAM is well on its way to getting all the pieces in place towards our end of season goals. This week has been a very successful week for our TEAM. Congrats to the Girls TEAM on winning the Mountain Valley Invite. Congrats to the following TEAM members who have qualified for the state meet. Girls & Boys 4x100 Relays, Landon Ramon & Gentry Paice in the High Jump, Isaac Faux in the 800m & 1600m, Tarin Strossers in the Javelin, Megan Elmont in the Long Jump & 100m, Dalton Cottom in the Long Jump, Jordan Porcaro in the Shot Put, Travis Farley in the 100m, and Elli Eastmond in the 400m. Congrats to Tarin Strossers & Maddie Ball on their new school records in the Javelin & 1600m. Congrats also to the 60+ of you who PR’d during this week between our two qualifying meets. Also congrats to the many of you who hit your season best marks this week. We as coaches are so pleased with so many of you who are competing and are taking advantage of the opportunities that are given to you. Thank you to so many of you who have stepped up and filled in to help your TEAM in events that are not your typical events. Thank you, thank you, and thank you!!! Let’s keep working hard and competing at all times. Yes you will have to give up some of the typical things that a “typical teenager” has to give up, however you WILL gain something that the “typical teenager” will not. Let’s keep working hard, stay focused on our goals, and let’s never quit, and great things will come your way. Full meet results can be found at www.runnercard.com
Now this week is another busy week for us. We are hosting a region quad meet on Tuesday. This meet is for all members of our team. All members can choose the events they wish to compete in, they are allowed 4 events. The start time for this meet is 3:30. We could use some help with timing at this meet if anyone is willing please contact Coach Wyatt. Our state qualifying meet this week is the Alpha Invite at Timpanogos HS. As is always the case we are limited on the number of kids we can take to this meet. This is on Thursday & Friday. The buses will leave MMHS at 2:00pm on both days. High school kids will be excused at 1:45 & students at the junior highs will be out at 1:40pm. Also on Saturday is the underclassman invitational at Wasatch HS. This meet is for Freshmen & Sophomores only. This meet is designed to give the underclassmen a chance to compete in a state qualifying atmosphere without being a state qualifying meet. We need to pre register for both the Alpha Invites and the Underclassman invites. So please let the coaching staff know if you will not be able to attend these opportunities by end of practice on Monday! If we do not have enough interested underclassmen for Saturday’s meet, than we will cancel this meet.
There will be optional practices during spring break at MMHS at 10:00am Monday –Wednesday of spring break. Make sure you are getting your workouts from you coaches if you are going to be out of town for spring break. It is important that you keep running and keep in shape over spring break.
Let’s see this through all the way! Thanks for all you all do for our program. Happy running, jumping, & throwing!
