“Those three seniors left it all out there in a very tough matchup against Shadle Park.”
“Team wise it came down to one or two missed opportunities on both the boys and girls matchups.” Colin Briggs (boys head coach)
“We had some huge wins and event sweeps today and we’re really proud of the way both teams competed. We fell just short of two team wins but their momentum continues to grow with on ongoing surge of PRs- they’re really on a roll right now and what we’re seeing is so exciting. This is our 3rd meet in the last week, with another meet this Saturday at the Mooberry Relays. With so many meets in such a short time period, they’re not competing fresh, which makes this continuous flood of PRs that much more impressive. We’re really happy with where we are at this mid-point in the season, we’re still weeks away before we begin to hit our peak.” Allix Potratz-Lee (Head Girls Coach).
