Titan Track Bulletin - March 3, 2014

GOOD START
Although we only had a couple workouts this first week, there were many things that have created a sense of optimism with the coaches.  The numbers were impressive (hopefully, they will stay impressive), the cooperation great, and, in the Friday workout, the feeling that this group of Titans wants to work hard so they can perform at the highest level possible.  Let’s keep it up!!

FRIDAY WORKOUT
Very impressive results.  For the sprinters, hurdlers, jumpers and distance athletes, this may not have been the hardest workout of the year, but there will be few that will be tougher.  The following were the top-five in meters covered during the workout:
Girls sprinters/hurdlers/jumpers- Suzy Robertson (1395), RaCail Carter (1322), Cidnee Davies (1315), Nicole Kimber (1310) and Ashton O’Neil (1300).
Boys sprinters/hurdlers/jumpers- Korbin Markos (1535), Mason Leishman (1535), Karson Nielson (1522), Trent Hughes (1490) and Cristian Rivera, Broderic Hall, and William Kirshner (1465).
Girls distance- Bella Williams (3295), Sharlie Dimick (3290), Katrina Dunlap and Becca Jacobsen (3025) and Shay Hoggan (3000).
Boys distance- Cody Kelley (3625), Ryan Andreasen (3570), Tyler Fessler (3565), Bryant Edgerton (3490), and Tanner Robb and Loren Burrell (3400).
Great job by everyone who completed the workout.  It was especially good to see the competitiveness of so many of you who were striving to get just a few more meters out of your body.  Being tough and competitive in workouts translates into being tough and competitive in the meets.

THIS WEEK
MONDAY- Reminder of the mandatory Drug Testing meeting that will take place Monday at 6:00 pm in the Auditorium.  You and your parents must attend unless you have already been at a prior meeting this year for a sport or extracurricular activity.
Let’s be ready for a GREAT week of workouts- and competition.  WE WILL WORK OUT TUESDAY AT 3:00 PM even though there is not a normal school day and there is also a State BB game (11:10 am at the U of U).
The schedule at this time will include an Intrasquad Meet Friday.  If the Boys BB team wins their first two games, the meet will be moved to Saturday.

INTRASQUAD MEET FRIDAY
This meet will pit the Seniors against the Sophomores and Juniors.  Boys and Girls scores will be added together to determine a winner.  Pizza will be served to the winning TEAM.  Details will be posted on the workout board.
FEES / PAPERWORK
Let’s get all of your paperwork turned in and all fees paid as soon as possible.  All of these items must be taken care of before you can compete in a meet or be issued a uniform.

UNIFORMS
The plan now is to issue uniforms Saturday after our 9:00 am workout.  To be issued a uniform you must have completed the following:
*All paperwork turned in;
*All fees paid ($70 participation, $20 transportation, $5 drug testing)
*Be academically eligible (2.0 GPA, no more than 1 F from 2nd term);
*All U’s cleared and paid for;
