Team 101: 15th-21st

Meet Information:

No meet.

Weekly Notes:

The weeks of Christmas vacation we will practice in the late morning each day.

A heads up for the Christmas holiday: those expecting to run indoor will be expected to practice over the break.  If you are going out of town alert the coaches as soon as possible so they can come up with a strategy to get the training necessary to win another state title in during that time.

A further reminder that the state Indoor championship is the weekend immediately following Mardi Gras.  For those expecting to represent the team at that meet, please do not plan on going on any trips (such as the ski trips many churches take at this time) because missing practice, plus the chance of injury or sickness, will hamper the team's ability to perform.

Recent Events:

We have begun training for indoor.  We have 3 weeks before our first competition.
