Championship Saturday

A nice round of applause to all of our state athletes. Lots of good competition coming from the CV Sabercats reflecting the talent we possess, and more importantly all the hard work we've put in.

Our finalists competing tomorrow:

   Tanner Townsend- 100 meter dash, 200 meter dash, 400 meter dash

   Garrett Wyatt- 110 meter hurdles, 300 meter hurdles

   Ryan Fila, Daniel Wheeler, Embry Simon, Tanner Townsend- 4x100 meter relay

Schedule of events for tomorrow:

**IMPORTANT NOTE: We will also be having Sarah Walker and Jesse Carter from our severe needs department racing in the Geoffrey Zaragoza 100M dash at 1020AM**

Lastly, on a somewhat sad but also celebratory note, our girls 4x100 deserve great credit for a nice job today. They raced well, beat their mark, set a new school record, and narrowly missed finals in a very competitive field of teams. Their season is over, but they showed great effort, teamwork, and they ran really really well, and I (we coaches) couldn't be prouder. 

Graves (9th), Simon (11th), Reiner (12th), Albers (12th) Alternates Wong, and Mackin not pictured

Hope to see you at Jefferson County Stadium tomorrow for Championship Saturday!

2013 State Track Time Schedule

Embedded below is the time schedule for the state meet. This meet is on Thursday and Friday, which are school days, so non-seniors need to talk with their teachers about work they may be missing. I know this can be a hassle, and might not be academically responsible, but if you don't compete until Later on Thursday, or even until Friday or Saturday, I recommend you arrive at the stadium early on Thursday. It's a great place to be with lots of energy and excitement--it will help you to get acclimated to the environment. Almost every school in the state from 1A to 5A is represented there, so it is of course a busy place. It's a really neat experience and I'm glad I get to share it with this group of athletes.

Athletes will transport themselves to the meet, and will arrive at least 1.5hrs before their event. I recommend leaving a minimum of 50 minutes to get to JeffCo Stadium (6th and Kipling) from Castle Rock.

I've highlighted in yellow the events we are sure to be in, and in blue the events that we need to qualify for finals in.

DELETED 1/29/14

Congrats!

Let's recognize some incredible performances!
(I'll be updating this periodically as we learn more about state qualification, and as I remember all the things our athletes did over our 2.5 day-long league meet)

Updated league schedule for Friday and other infor

We will pick up tomorrow where we left off when the meet was cancelled today.  The boys 4x800 will be started over tomorrow, but the Medley relay, and girls 4x800 are considered complete. All of the field events that were started will be erased and everyone will start over as if nothing happened today.

The same transportation situation that we had for today will go for tomorrow, with just a slight time change. You will be released from class at 1:20, and the bus will leave at 1:45 sharp! Athletes that want to drive can, but talk with your coach--you must be at the stadium 75 minutes before your event at a minimum.  There will be no return bus. (Remember: for Saturday, everyone is on the bus)

This is the 2nd day in a row you will miss all or part of your 4th hour. Make sure you speak with your teachers.

Early yearbook distribution is tomorrow at the end of the school day. I am talking with Ms. Leifheit about a way to get you those, but also so that you don't have to wait around at the school. I'll text you with that info. Please do not jeopardize your chance or a relay team's chance at PRs, school records, and state qualifications because you want people to sign your yearbook...plenty of time for that later.

We are 2.5 races into this meet and one thing I've seen so far that I have loved is the support you guys have shown one another. Lets keep that up the next couple of days.
