January 24th-29th - WSU Cancelled Woods Cross Meet

We had a few athletes go down to BYU Friday and Saturday this past week and had a great showing representing Farmington well. Congrats to Henry Prusse for wining the 400 M with a time of 51.54. Congrats to Marianne Barber for not only winning the 200 M Dash in 25.52, taking 2nd in the 60 M Dash in 7.78, 2nd in the 400 M in 59.02 but for winning the Girl's outstanding track athlete of the meet award. Katrina Hirst also made the final of the 60 M Hurdles and placed 5th with a time of 9.99. Congrats to everyone who went and competed. Results can be found here: 2022 BYU Indoor Invite Results

This week we had originally planned for the Weber State Invite on Friday and Saturday but due to Covid they have been asked to cancel the high school indoor meet. As a result, Woods Cross has decided to host a time trial meet at their track outside. It should be about 40 degrees and sunny Friday so hopefully it stays that way. This will be a meet with a few schools bringing a few athletes and it is free. Just show up to the starting line. The meet will start at 3:30 and it will be a rolling schedule, meaning they will go from one event to the next not really knowing what time each event will start but here is the order of events: 1600, 400, 800, 200, 4x4. 

If anyone is interested, there is a meet up in Idaho on Friday afternoon at Idaho State. Henry Prusse and his dad are going and have room for 5 more athletes if anyone is interested, reach out to Henry Prusse.

As we are back in person now tomorrow, we will have track class during 8th period for those in the class. If you aren't in the class, run to the indoor track right after school to get going on your workout to catch the end of practice. If you are in the class and you need to receive fit for life credit for graduation, you need to email Coach Walkenhurst (kwalkenhurst@dsdmail.net) by Tuesday January 25th to be put on the list of those needed to be entered into a Canvas class to do a few extra assignments to get Fit For Life credit. There is also a $25 fee that needs to be paid at the front office. Just go in there after emailing coach Walkenhurst and letting them know you need to pay the fit for life credit fee.
