Titan Indoor Track Bulletin - Jan 20, 2013

WSU INVITATIONAL
The Titan All-Time list took a beating at the WSU meet Friday and Saturday. Jace Skidmore got things going as he leaped 20'01.50 for a new indoor record in the long jump. Jaxon Worthen cleared 6'00 for a new record in the high jump. In the ladies high jump, Jaycie Smith jumped 4'10 for the #2 indoor mark. And Nick Merriman cleared 10'00 to take over the #5 mark in the pole vault.
While there were no school records in Saturday action, there were many more all-time marks established. Karson Nielson (8.55) and Jaxon Worthen (8.59) moved into the #2 and #4 spots in the 55m hurdles. Landon Greenhalgh won the 800m run in 2:03.34 for the #5 all-time mark. Cody Kelley’s 10:34.61 improved on his #5 position on the list.
Kenzey Fleming ran 8.18 in the 55m dash, good enough for #5 on the all-time list. Bella Williams ran a great race in the 1600m run finishing in 5:38.31 to move into the #2 spot.
Besides the all-time marks, there were many great performances by the Titans. Most of these impressive performances were by "rookies" who were competing in their first indoor meet.
ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Selected as the Athletes of the Week were Ashley Rodriguez and Jace Skidmore. Ashley keeps working hard, never misses a practice, and does everything possible to become the best she can be. Jace is doing whatever it takes to make his senior year a great one. An indoor record in the long jump this week was a great way to start.
SIMPLOT GAMES
Reminder: I need your Simplot form turned in by Wednesday. I’ve attached the form in case you have lost yours.
WORKOUTS
We will meet Tuesday at 2:00. In as much as there are no basketball games that day, I’m not sure if we will have the small gym or not. But we will work out for sure.
TEAM CONDITIONING
If you have Advanced Team Conditioning 8^th period, make sure you are dressed the first day of class (Thursday).
