Titan Track Bulletin - May 12, 2013

THANKS FOR THE GREAT SUPPORT
Thanks to everyone that helped make the Region Championships a big success. Stacey Wilcox and too many parents to list helped us earn some much needed money by running the concession stand. The coaches all did a great job in officiating and making sure the meet was run properly. Coach Berrong did his usual great job announcing- he was busier than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest keeping the meet moving and getting the awards presented. Coaches Wilcox, Jones, Murray, Knight and Busby sacrificed their coaching duties during the competition to ensure the integrity of the meet. They had prepared the TEAM well throughout the season and the Titans were ready to compete. Thanks to all of the Titans who helped out as officials, gate crew, etc.. And thanks to the Titans who competed hard. There were great performances in all aspects of the meet.

ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Selected as the Athletes of the Week were Jessica Howes, Jaycie Smith, Adriana McFarland, Cameron Dower, Ashton Bigelow, Brennan O’Neil, Austin Evans, and Spencer Woodhall. Jessica had PR’s in the 800m run and pole vault in her last competition on the SHS track. Jaycie Smith qualified for State in the high jump in her last meet at Syracuse. Adriana had two big PR’s in the 1600 (13-seconds) and 800 (6-seconds). Cameron, Ashton, Austin and Brennan wound up their careers on the SHS track in style. And Spencer had a 10' PR in the discus to narrowly miss qualifying for State. There are several more who deserve Athlete of the Week recognition for their great help and support not only for the week, but for the entire season.

ACADEMIC AWARDS
Congrats to Lindsey Bailey, Erin Kibler, Landon Greenhalgh and Parker Greenhalgh. They were named to the Region All-Academic Team. Parker was also selected as a member of the Academic All-State Team. This is a great accomplishment by four outstanding students.
