Today was our first time back at Sun Prairie in about 6 or 7 years. It is a great course but we were again challenged by a "new" course. Those people who were mentally prepared to run fast regardless had a really nice day today. Others will have another day to race in the future. It is important that we start to get every athlete focused for every meet, as the opportunities for races are winding down. I'm really looking for the fire to compete and to place well at every meet now. Big props to Liam, Sam K., Connor W., Brendon, and Justin with PRs tonight.
The split meet is run with all boys in one race and only scored as one meet. Varsity scored 36 points to outdistance Madison East with 55 points (SP=59, Parker=117, and Craig=187). Junior Varsity scored a very impressive 16 points (one place away from a perfect score and a score that is good enough to "beat the field"). In the mean time we will gear up for Saturday and put our best foot forward for Stoughton. It is always tough to stay focused the week of Homecoming but I hope we can put the distractions aside and put a great performance together for Saturday. The varsity will get to see how we compare with Middleton and our JV will get one more shot at SPASH.
