MaxPreps results



A lot of us are used to going to MileSpilt for results for our competitions. While we may love MileSplit, it is not the official rankings site for Colorado high school track and field. That distinction belongs to maxpreps.com

CV track coaches will be paying attention to athlete rankings as the season goes on, but athletes should be as well. Two days following a meet (sometimes sooner, sometimes later) you should log-in to see where your new best time/height/distance puts you in comparison to other tracksters from around the state. Remember: we want to be in the top 18

Here are the links (may be temporary)
Link for boys
Link for girls

A few notes to keep in mind

  • Make sure the drop down for Leaders by Division is set to "Division 5a"
  • Change the Event Type drop down to your specific event
  • You will notice that the relays results are wrong--MaxPreps I believe is having a lot of problems with this. We will just have to stay on top of it by making sure that our best results (non-wind aided if applicable) are recognized by MaxPreps, and to let them know about it when they're not.
  • Something interesting may be to change the drop down for Leaders by League to "5A Continental" to see where you rank in the league
  • To access without links: Go to www.maxpreps.com > Click on More Sports on the toolbar and select Track & Field  > Underneath the toolbar you get a sub-toolbar where you can click on Stat Leaders > there you can click on Boys Colorado  or Girls Colorado....OR you can search Castle View High School from the homepage and navigate to results through there.

Spring Break Practice Schedule

Boy, do I have a lot of thank you notes to send out after yesterday. Athletes, consider this post the one to you. It took a lot of people to put on the Sabercat Invite, and you were some of the most important. Thank you for helping with everything you did, whether you were a participant in the meet or not. A lot of coaches from other schools said great things about the day, and how you guys helped. Could not have done it  without you. So, THANK YOU! It doesn't hurt that we came in 2nd (girls) and 3rd (boys) either. I'm just sorry I got to watch so little of it--I saw next to nothing of what I heard were good performances.

Now here's your practice schedule for the week:
Monday:

  • 8:30am Distance crew with Kuhn and Seaman
  • 10am Sprinters, hurdlers, jumpers with Nack
  • 3pm Throwers with Johnston and Hansen 
  • 3:15pm Pole Vaulters with Martinez
  • 5:00pm+ Couldn't make one of these? Contact coach Nack
Tuesday:

  • 8:30am Distance crew with Kuhn and Seaman
  • 10am Sprinters, hurdlers, jumpers, vaulters with Nack
  • 3pm Throwers with Johnston and Hansen 
  • 5:00pm+  Couldn't make one of these?  Contact coach Nack 
Wednesday:

  • 8:30am Distance crew with Kuhn and Seaman
  • 10am Sprinters, hurdlers, jumpers with Nack and Huber
  • 3pm Throwers with Johnston and Hansen
  • 3:15pm Pole Vaulters with Martinez
  • 5:15pm  Sprints with Heikes
Thursday:

  • 8:30am Distance crew with Kuhn and Seaman
  • 10am Sprinters, hurdlers, jumpers, vaulters with Nack and Huber
  • 3pm Throwers with Johnston and Hansen 
  • 5:15pm  Sprints with Heikes 
Friday:
  • Distance crew: easy 25 minutes on own (show up at one of the other practices if you need a 3rd)
  • 10am Sprinters, jumpers with Nack and Huber
  • 3pm Throwers with Johnston and Hansen 
  • 3:15pm Pole Vaulters, and hurdlers with Martinez and Nebels
  • 5:15pm  Sprinters, hurdlers, jumpers with Heikes

Because you must have 3 practices in this week to attend Saturday's meet in FoCo, feel free to attend a different practice this week. If you're a distance runner, show up for a sprints workout. If you're sprints, vaults, or jumps, show up for a distance workout. Notice the workout option after 5pm on Mon & Tue; contact coach Nack by phone or email ahead of time if interested...it'll be a surprise.

Satruday bus leaves at 6am. There is a return bus back.

ThunderRidge Invite results

I tried a different way of noting results this time. Athletes, you can look at these until I collect results from all of the coaches, and what I like about these is that it leaves your results in context of the rest of the meet. The TR Invite is a pretty competitive meet, and we have a lot to be happy about, but also have a lot to improve on. Check out the results here.


I am loving how determined our athletes are to get school records. Keep aiming for them, because they are starting to fall. In fact, two fell this weekend, and 3 others nearly did. The near misses were actually new records mark-wise, but were wind-aided. To be a record...

  • the new mark must, of course, be better
  • be at a state qualifying meet, or at state itself
  • be non-wind aided (this only applies to the 100m, 200m, 100/110h, triple jump, and long jump)
Will hopefully have more to come later.

These are, for almost all purposes final. Thankfully we have the benefit of flexibility at our first meet.

Bus leaves at 7:30am, sharp

Also, congrats to our JV athletes that dominated at their triangular meet today. A lot of great performances , but particularly of note are Erik Taylor's 100m (11.5) and Taylor Smith's 100m (12.94s). Watch out "varsity" kids! You have some freshmen gunning for you.

Entries and other stuff

SPIKE NIGHT: Thursday 6-8pm @ the Boulder Running Company on I-25 and Arapahoe

TRACK-PACK ORDERS: Due Monday. https://denver.itemorder.com/start. Passcode: ND5CV. I got a couple of these items in and they're sweet.

THURSDAY & FRIDAY- Finals = half day = practice at 12pm both days. JV athletes have no practice on Friday because they have a...

JV MEET AT DCHS: Bus leaves at 2:45. Get here plenty early (2:20) to get everything taken care of.

LEAGUE RELAYS: Bus leaves at 7:30. It is a "Soup to Nuts" meet, so you must be there the whole time. If you plan to leave early plan on leaving next Saturday open as well.

Now for the entries...if you are not on this list you have a lot more chances to find yourselves on the roster for another meet this season. You get there by kicking butt at JV meets and approaching practice like competition. For those that are on this roster, these things can change, and are at the coaches' discretion. Relay orders may change, but are for the most part set.

Updated Records

We discussed the school records today during practice. Thanks to some good old fashioned research on on co.milesplit.com and some help from some of you athletes I now have them updated to include what I think are our T&F records. Yay.  Hopefully we tear these to pieces.

TIme Trial Recap


There were quite a few things to be happy about on a day that was cold, blustery, and coming after a short but hard week of work without a ton of specific event prep. Namely I am happy with the performances that we had in the 400m (though more athletes need to run it). There are a handful of names I could mention here, but I mainly want to mention Nick Stalzer's run. I wish we had video of that...what a race. Fresh off the basketball court I knew he had some endurance, but when he blazed out the first 200m of the race I expected him to hit the wall at the half-way point (you know you did too!). No way, no how. Nick finished it up, and I think it was probably the biggest crowd pleaser of the day as far as CV is concerned. Can't wait to see what else he has in store.

Lots of good things happened for both the boys and girls. Many of our 400m boys from last year got off to fast starts again (Townsend 52+, Schultz 54+). Sydney Davis turned some coaches heads in the 400m on the girls side. Probably the best performances of the day for the girls were turned in by Mackenzie Pettit by running the fastest handheld times in the 100m, 200m, and 100h along with shining marks in the jumps.

From the distance crew: Mason Arther turned in a solid performance in the mile.

I have no marks from the jumps, but Coaches Smith and Huber told me their are some very promising jumpers with us now on both sides in both long and triple jump.

One thing that needs to change, and we will talk about this more in the coming week, is the default answer to the question "what are you running today?" The default answer is typically "the 100, 200, and long jump". I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but very few of us are gifted enough to be good at these short burst activities. You and the team will be a lot better off with an answer similar to "the 400, the 4x400, and whatever else I can that helps me improve my time in the 400m". An added benefit: being a good 400m runner can make you a better 100/200 runner--there are a couple people on this team that attest to that.

Something to watch and learn from...
Block starts

Here are some videos I have from this weekend. I want you to ask two questions

  1. Is the athlete exploding out of the blocks or just stepping?
  2. How is the athletes form once out of the blocks? (figure-4, on the balls of the feet, knees up?)





Coaches my be asking some athletes to switch events, or trying to get you to strongly consider other events. Please realize if they do this it is because you show promise in the events you are trying now, but are just short of the marks that are needed to star in those rolls. We feel that switching events benefits the team, yet we will recommend changes that are complimentary to the events you wish to participate in (i.e., 400m to the 300hurdles, or 100m to the long or high jump, or throws to pole vault).

See you tomorrow. We will meet inside then head outside.
