Mountain Valley Results & Juab Invite Info

Golden Eagles,

This past week gave us a chance as a team to try to “Achieve” at the Mountain Valley Invite. As a team we achieved 11 state qualifying marks at this meet. They were achieved by: Cam Bates (Javelin), Elli Eastmond (400 Meters, 800 Meters, & Javelin), Travis Farley (100 Meters & 200 Meters), Quinn Hooper (110 Hurdles & 300 Hurdles), Britney Lund (3200 Meters), River Woods (Discus), and our girls 4x400 of Heather Asay, Baylie Lund, Tennessee Schellenberg, & Elli Eastmond. Big congratulations to these athletes and also to the many athletes who achieved PR’s and season best marks at this meet. There were great moments of courage this meet and great moments when athletes stepped up and competed. Full meet results can be found at www.runnercard.com  We as coaches are very pleased with the steps our team has taken to achieve our goals as a team and as individuals. Keep up the great work, keep being positive, keep supporting each other, and know that we can still achieve more this season.  

 

This week provides us two chances to achieve more. The first chance is on Tuesday at Springville High School. This is a region tri meet between us, Springville, and Payson this meet is for the whole team. The start time for this meet is 3:30pm. The buses will leave at 2:35pm. Freshmen will be checked out at 2:15pm for this meet. MMHS students will be in class until school ends.

The second opportunity to achieve this week is our state qualifying meet the Juab Invitational. We are limited with the number of athletes we can invite to this meet (4 per event). This meet is Friday starting at 1:00pm at Juab High School. We will be checking students out of class at 11:00am (Freshmen at 10:50am) and will be departing on the buses at 11:15am.
