Coach Huff and I very proud of the team and all of their hard work this season (ALL of you!) We would have never had a Sectional Qualifying team if it were not for the dedication and hard work of each and every one of the athletes. Special thanks to the following girls who came out to support the Sectional race: Kyla Henderson, Jane Jackson, Diane-Jo Bart-Plange, Evan and Dana Willsey, Kierstie Bischoff, Shanelle Kudera and Maggi Wolfe. We know not everyone could make it but thanks to these girls for getting up early on yet another Saturday morning!
Tomorrow (November 4th) is the LAST DAY TO TURN IN UNIFORMS!!!! Turn in uniforms and warm-ups in Coach Huff's room (E109) at the end of the day Tuesday. We will also ask all athletes to fill out their end of the season evaluation.
Beginning next week and through the Winter break, we will meet and run as a group after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. These are optional workouts but a great way to stay in shape for spring sports. We will meet in the hall by the locker rooms. All athletes are welcomed to attend - not just returning CC athletes! Track conditioning will start in January after the Winter Break.
Thanks again to all of the parents for all of their support this season - we could have never done this without you!!!
