We had a great showing at our meets this past week and had some great performances. Congratulations to the following athletes for already qualifying for state based on their times this week:
Marianne Barber - 100 M - 12.92
Katelyn Morgan - 400 M - 58.43
Elisabeth Ferrell - 3200 M - 11:10.65, 1600 M - 5:10.45
The girls placed 4th as a team at the Davis district championships and the boys placed 6th (only 7 points out of 4th). We were going up against some great competition this week and the teams beating us are the best in the entire state. For our first year we are off to a great start. I was very proud to be a Phoenix. Thank you for not only representing our school well but for having great sportsmanship and representing our school well with your behavior. We have the best kids and let's keep it that way.
I still want to emphasize that when we ride the bus to meets you need to ride the bus back or talk to one of the coaches. Please don't just leave because I don't know where you are and it makes it hard to keep track of you when you just leave. Let's not make it a habit of leaving meets early.
With Spring Break upon us we will meet a few times for those of you who are still around. If you are not in town please get in some workouts (we will post some workouts below for you to do/talk to your event coach). Just as a heads up our next meet will be a home meet on April 10th. That is the Wednesday after we get back from Spring Break. This meet is for the entire team. We are going to need all the help we can get to help our home meets run smoothly. If you have parents/friends who are willing to help us out please have them sign up by clicking the link for our HOME MEET SIGN UP. Thank you!!
Here is the tentative schedule for this week:
Monday April 1st - 8:30 AM @ Farmington High School
Tuesday April 2nd - On Your Own
Wednesday April 3rd - 8:30 AM @ Farmington High School
Thursday April 4th - On Your Own
Friday April 5th - 8:30 AM @ Farmington High School
Saturday April 6th - On Your Own
Please don't just take this week off or you will feel it when we get back next Monday. Please get some type of workout in if you are gone on vacation. Thanks for all you do Phoenix.

Davis District Championships & UVU
Great job to all of those who went and competed at the meet this past week on Thursday at Box Elder. It was a great first meet to see where we are at. We still have a lot of the season left so let's make sure we are coming to practice every single day and doing our best. I want to address something that happened Thursday that I want to be very clear on so we don't have any issues in the future. I expect ALL athletes to ride the bus to and from the meet. When we drive ourselves and go with other people it becomes a liability issue and us coaches get in trouble if something happens. I also want everyone to stay at the meet for the entire duration as we are a team and we should cheer our team on until the end. Leaving early should be a very rare thing. Plan on staying the entire time with the team.
This week we have 2 invites. The Davis District Championships will be at Syracuse High School and will be on Wednesday and Thursday. We can only take a limited amount of people to this invite so not everyone will be going. We will let you know Monday, Tuesday at the latest who will be going. Saturday we will also take a limited number of athletes down to Orem to compete in the UVU invite. We will let you know by Thursday who is going to that meet.
We also have our online store back up for more orders but it will only stay open until tomorrow night (Monday March 25th, 2019) so please if you want something order because we won't do another one. Go here for more info.

March 4th-9th
We are well under way with our season. If you are interested in doing track you need to complete your ELIGIBILITY ASAP. I will post a list Monday of everyone who has done their RMA and who is cleared to compete and who is still missing stuff. I need this done no later than Wednesday. If you need a physical still, you can go on Tuesay night to the Layton IHC and get one done for $25 from 5:30-6:30 PM (all proceeds go back to our school).
Also this Tuesday we will be having a sports psychologist, Chuck Miller, come and do a presentation for us. It will be from 6:00-6:45 PM. We will do it in the commons at the school. You and your parents are welcome to come and attend if you feel like that would be beneficial for you.
We need to make sure something is very clear. All those in the track class, just because school ends at 2:20 does not mean that practice is over. We will likely be going after the bell rings for school to end. You need to make sure you stay for all of practice and not just when school ends. I was not happy with the fact that most everyone left on Friday when school ended and only a handful of kids stayed to help us with the track shed. That cannot happen again. Please make sure you don't have any plans right after school on days we have track class.
Here is the practice schedule this week:
Monday March 4th: - 2:40 PM @ HS Weight room
*Vaulters with Coach Petty
*Hurdlers with Coach Brower at 2:40 PM - Then you'll work out with sprints after
