areas conference counting couple days eight event field finished good home looked meet outdoor ready south track until
We got out there at eight this morning. There was so much new stuff, but we had it all ready about noon. I looked around and thought, 'OK. This is good.' We're still not done with everything but in a couple of years when it's finished there isn't a better track in South Dakota. Our field event areas are great. It's good to have a home track again. I'm counting the days until the conference outdoor meet comes back here.
events goals half win won
We won more than half of the events. That was one of the goals I put on them. To win more events than the other teams.
thank
Thank you for this consideration of the residents.
again beginning consistency corner flow following hard monday pitch region teams tough trying tuesday turn until wednesday
Consistency is going to make the difference. There's going to be a lot of jumbling in our region as we turn that corner and find more consistency. At the beginning of the season, some of these young teams are just trying to get into the flow of the game. It's especially hard on young pitchers, who pitch Monday and Tuesday and then don't pitch again until the following Wednesday because of the weather. It's just tough to get into the flow.
high intrigued kids northern school tradition
It has become a tradition here. Some high school kids have become intrigued about Northern because of it.
conference event events expected finals kids meet qualified qualify running top
Usually the conference meet comes down to how you qualify for the finals in the running events. For the most part, we did pretty well. There was one event where I thought we should've qualified and didn't. But for the most part, the kids I expected to be in the top eight, they were.
best both brady coming competing couple eric events foot good guys high hurdles jump mark needs personal slow starting tired tonight work
On the men's side, we had two of our old-timers in Eric and Jesse competing with two of our freshmen, Brady and Trevor. Jesse competed unattached tonight. He's coming off a foot injury, and he's just starting to come back. Eric was just tired after football. We've been kind of slow with him coming back. But he will be there pretty quick. His mark tonight isn't much off his personal best right now. Brady and Trevor both have a couple of events they need to work on. Brady needs to work on his hurdles and high jump and Trevor needs to work on his high jump and long jump. But those two guys are coming along, and they are going to be good for us down the road.
run
Megan was also another one that kind of got run to death.
good missed quite run time
It was a good run for Jeremy, not quite what he wanted. The provisional qualifying time is 31:10 so he just missed that.
figure five good meet outside seen
It's just good to be outside and kind of figure out where you're at. We haven't seen them in a meet for five weeks.
cloudy cold event marks running
It was cold and cloudy and as the day went on it got nicer. I thought our running event marks got better as the day went on.
good pleased
It was good day. I was pleased with what we did.
fall saying seniors three whether
We have a saying in sports. It is not whether you fall down that counts, it is whether you get back up. All three of those seniors have that kind of mentality.
athlete events four katie knows replace three
We won't be able to replace Katie with just one athlete when she leaves. We'll need two, three or four people. Plus, she is very competitive. She understands her events and knows how to go about doing them in the right way.
