3/15 update

Phoenix,

Our first meet is in the books and there were a lot of good things that happened, and many more things to build on. 

Our coaches were very proud of the effort and willingness to compete in the assigned events. That type of mentality will help us on our return to excellence. Let's continue with that effort, attitude, and team mindset every single day.

We also appreciate your help managing the meet. Your help will be called upon for 5 more days of track meets, including two this week. Here is some information regarding this week. 

Super Meet

This week we are hosting the Super Meet, which will see nearly 20 schools join us. We can enter all who are eligible and have been attending practice into the meet, but for some of the JV level athletes, you may see only one event. The same is being asked of other teams - for the sake of time.

On Wednesday the girls will be competing and the boys will be "working" the meet. Each of you will have a job. On Thursday, the roles switch, but, because we have so few girls on the team, many boys will be asked to help where needed, so please pay attention to the job list. 

This meet, being so large, will go later than last week's meet, so plan accordingly. 

For those who were not eligible, you need to clear all those U's before you will be allowed to compete, or finish registration. 

Practices

Practices are every day - they are not optional. Athletes missing practices without having cleared it are at risk of not being entered into the meets. We are working to change our culture to be more team oriented, so make sure you are doing what you can to elevate our team by being present/consistent, bringing a positive attitude, and working hard.

Team Store

If you would like to order gear/apparel for our team, a team store is available here: My Team Shop. There are some good items on there, so we encourage you to check it out before it closes this week.

Should you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out.
