Divisionals and October 9-14

Region Championships were a little on the rough side for us this year as a whole, and we have a lot of room for improvement.  We did have Cailey Bracken (3rd) and Brooklyn Tarr (5th) place top 10 in the varsity girls race.  The Girl's team ended up 3rd place and the Boy's were 5th.  As a whole we saw improvements from most athletes from pre-Region to Region, but we should see big improvements from almost 100% of the athletes because that is the beginning vs. the end of the season.  We seemed to struggle competing in this race, but hopefully a lesson is learned and we can move forward and be more competitive in our future races.    

Divisional Champions are Tuesday morning for us.  This is how we qualify for State!  HERE is the link to the 6A pairings for each race Our Girl's team races in the 6A B race at 9:40am and Boy's race in the 6A B race at 10:00am.  Top 7 teams in each A and B races will go to State on October 24th.  

Bus leave time is set for 7:15 a.m.   Normally Coach Barnes will excuse the top 10 boys and girls for Tuesday, and only those other athletes on the team that have continued to come to practice everyday since Region (several athletes have already quit, which is always disappointing), but all are welcome as long as you are there to cheer and support the team.

Thanks to the Belcher, Hall, D'Orlando, and Sayre families for hosting our dinner last week.  Thanks to the parents who brought after race treats for the athletes on Wednesday at the Region Championships! And we especially thank those who came to support and cheer on the athletes at Region!  

Team Banquet is still TBA because of scheduling conflicts, but is usually the 2nd week in November.
