fun good suppose weather
There's a lot to do. We're suppose to have good weather tomorrow, so it should be a fun day.
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.
run
Megan was also another one that kind of got run to death.
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.
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.
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.
high intrigued kids northern school tradition
It has become a tradition here. Some high school kids have become intrigued about Northern because of it.
looked won
I thought 'Wally' looked real good. He won by a considerable margin. He did it kind of easily.
above degrees early gets good happy himself hot kids laid night pushed ran run
I thought Trent ran a good race. It was 7:30 at night and still above 80 degrees so it was pretty hot to run. Some kids who laid back early ran a little better and Trent kind of pushed himself a little. I'm happy that he placed. He will run better if he gets in better condition.
good hard hurdles worked
Jenny Betz had a really good hurdles race. She's worked pretty hard on that.
four good hammer happy threw
Our hammer throwers threw good today, all four of them. I was really happy with the way they threw.
came events outside seven shot six win won
I thought when we came into the meet, we had an outside shot to win six or seven events and we won five. I don't think we've won that many events here in a while. That's pretty good.
great ran
Jake had a great meet. We kind of ran him to death, too.
