Week of Sept. 27

We have only one meet this week. We will be at Westlake High School on Friday. The bus will leave at 2:00PM. For parents interested in going, it is easy to find. Go south on Redwood Road to the crossroads area (Smith's, Chevron, Walgreens are at that corner) in Saratoga Springs. Continue south on Redwood for 1-2 miles and you will see the high school on the west side of the road out in the fields.

Change of Date

Due to Granite School District's parent-teacher conferences this week, the region meet will be on Thursday NOT Wednesday. The times will be the same, but we will only be running our JV teams. Both Varsity and JV athletes will be excused from school to attend the meet.
Varsity teams will be running the Nebo Invitational on Friday. The bus will leave at 3:00 and the races will be at 5:00 and 5:30. JV runners are welcome to attend and cheer on their teamates, but should not feel obligated to go.
I will announce the JV and Varsity teams tomorrow at practice.

Wednesday- Kearns will host the meet at Oquirrh Park (by the Olympic Oval). The park is located in the area of 5800 South 4800 W (it's a big park). Races start at 3:30.

Here we go!

I hope everyone had fun at the Grass Relays last Saturday. I have the times for those who haven't already stopped by to see them.
The Pre-Region meet yesterday was a mess. I don't know why we had to deal with other regions there. I will work to make sure that doesn't happen in the future. The girls times are legitimate, but the guys times are messed up. Some people were going the wrong way, bumping into the other region, and running longer than needed. We will talk about the meet today during practice.
This Saturday we will be at BYU. For those parents interested in attending, the meet will be held in the track area (just South of the football stadium). The first race will be the fresh/soph boys at 9:00AM. It will be followed by the girls, JV boys, JV girls, Varsity girls, university men's 4 mile race, and finally the Varsity boys. We will be back to the school about 1:30PM.
