This week we have state at Davis High School on Tuesday and Wednesday. Please read the info below so you know what is going on.

STATE @ Davis - Meet Schedule

We will not be doing a bus as most of you live close to Davis plus there might be long breaks between races and there won't be a great place for teams to sit and watch. The weather will be high 70s and warm (especially with a 2:00 PM Start). Please make sure you hydrate every day and get lots of sleep. We will try to have some sort of a team camp for when you are there but please pay attention to the time schedule and get there about an hour an a half before your event so you have adequate time to warm up and check into the bullpen. You MUST check in at first call but don't have to stay in the bullpen until the 3rd call. Once the 3rd call has been made you must remain in the bullpen area. Please read all of the info at the following link: State 2021 Meet Info (see map at bottom for team area)

If you haven't already, please take a look at the start list on RunnerCard. (heat sheets will be posted here once they send those out)

Thursday we will have JV Region for those who did not compete at Region last week. This will be the final meet of the year. Buses will leave at 12:45 PM on Thursday to Box Elder. Please fill out this form by Tuesday night at 8:00 PM to ensure you will be signed up for events Thursday. 2021 JV Region Sign up Form

May 10th - 15th - Region Championships

We had a busy week this past week with the South End Championships and our other 2 meets we had at WX Thursday and Mt. Ridge Friday. Thank you to everyone who helped with our South End meet and great job to everyone who competed on Thursday and Friday. Results for those meets can be found here:

Viewmont & Farmington @ Woods Cross Region Meet

Mt. Ridge - Sentinel Invitational

We'd like to congratulate Scott Taylor for Clearing 10' at the Mt. Ridge Invite Friday which qualifies him for state!

This week we host the Region 5 Championships at our place. This is a 2 day meet. The top 4 in each event and the top 4 teams in each relay will qualify for state (a SQ time is not required to qualify for state). However, if 6 people all achieve the qualifying standard at the region meet, all 6 would qualify for state. 

Because we are hosting we will need help from those who aren't competing to help run some events. Each team is responsible for an event but we still need some help at each event. So if you are not competing at region, please sign up for a job to help out with on Wednesday and/or Thursday. Fill out this form: 2021 Region 5 Championships Help Sign Up Form

On Thursday at the Region championships, there will be a boys and girls "unseeded" 1600 where anyone who is not competing at region can sign up for. If you are interested in signing up for this unseeded 1600, please fill out this form: 2021 Region Unseeded 1600 Sign Up.

Please take care of yourselves so we can perform well this week at the Region championships and get ready for State and JV region next week. We only have 2 weeks of track left, let's make it count.

April 26th - May 1st - JV Meet @ Box Elder & Wildcat Invite

Another great week is in the books and we represented Farmington well at the Region 5 Relays invite on Thursday at Woods Cross. We saw a lot of school records and a few more State Qualifications. Results can be found here: 2021 Region 5 Relays

Congrats to the Girls 4 X 100 M Relay Team for their state qualifying time of 51.18. Congrats to Whitney Hoopes, Kate Bowers, Lindsey Shirley, and Marianne Barber. They also ran a 4 X 200 M Relay time of 1:48.10 which currently ranks 2nd in 5A, so that should be good enough to qualify them for state (this year there is not a qualifying standard for the 4 X 200 as it is the first year the relay is happening). We also want to congratulate everyone who came home with a PR on Thursday. It was a fun day for the Phoenix with our Boys taking home the win and our Girls placing 3rd. 

This upcoming week we have a busy week so make sure you check the schedule and get work or other things moved so you can make sure to be present for our meets. 

Wednesday, we host a Jr. high meet. It will consist of Farmington Jr, Centennial Jr, Centerville Jr, and Syracuse Jr. We need EVERYONE to be there to help us run this meet. We will need someone at every event so we can make sure this runs smoothly and it is a good experience for the jr high kids. The meet starts at 3:15 and will likely go until about 6. Please go on to this sign up sheet and sign up for a job. 2021 Jr High Track Meet @ Farmington High School - April 28th.

Thursday, we have a JV meet @ Box Elder. The buses will leave at 1:45. This will be a JV only meet so if you normally compete at Invites you will NOT be competing on Thursday. To sign up for the meet on Thursday, please sign up for your events before Wednesday at 5:00 PM to ensure you get in the meet. If you don't sign up for events you may not be able to compete Thursday. 2021 JV Meet @ Box Elder - April 29th. 

Friday, we have the Wildcat Invite at Wood Cross. This will be a more traditional invite, unlike the relay meet we had last week. All events, including the main 4 relays, will be contested. We have a limited number of entries we can enter for the entire team so we will be deciding that early in the week so you know whether or not to plan on competing Thursday at Box Elder or Friday at Woods Cross.
