We'll get to this week's information shortly, but first I want to highlight some performances from this past week's varsity meet at the Longmont Invitational. It was our best weather day of the season, and it paid off with many great performances by our athletes. As a team the boys finished 7th and the girls one notch better in 6th. I could list a bunch of athletes and their PRs, but the PRs were too many to count. Other notable performances are expanded upon below.
Top 5 finishes
- 5th
- Girls 4x200m: Mackin, Loyola, Taylor, Davis
- Maya Brown, Shot put
- 4th
- Parker Strahler, 110m hurdles
- Maya Brown, discus SCHOOL RECORD!
- Mackenzie Pettit, HJ
- Chris Linnin, HJ
- 3rd
- Mackenzie Pettit 100m hurdles
- Ryan Hardin, Shot put
- This was only Ryan's second varsity meet, and he's been excellent. He scored a second place in last week's Sabercat Invitational with a throw of 45'3". This week's throw of 43'9" got him a 3rd place. Might he be able to tackle the school record of 48'2" by the end of the season?

- 1st
- Girls Sprint Medley Relay: Mackin, Gomez, Stathakis, Davis

Next week
We have a unique schedule next week that we haven't dealt with yet. We have a Varsity meet on Friday night and not on Saturday. We also have a JV meet that day. Athletes attending that Varsity meet must take the bus to Denver South's All City Stadium and take it back. Work schedules, class schedules, and any other activities must be 2nd priority to compete at this meet.
That's all for now. Entries for this week will be posted later in the week on this blog.
