End of the day

Our State Championship Meet is this Saturday! I really do feel like somebody pressed the "fast-forward" button on this season!

We had a great day Saturday at the New Castle County Championhips! It was a BEAUTIFUL day at Winterthur! Congrats to Chanon Tuntivate who grabbed All County Honors!

We had a nice turnout in our Old Timers Race: Mr. McCoy, Mr. Holler, Mr. Streck, & Allie Gedney joined me on the starting line. Hopefully next year, they will move the start time so more of you can watch us run :) Half the fun of running the old timers' race is hearing your words of encouragement.

This week's practice schedule is below:

Monday: Bellevue

Tuesday: School

Wednesday: Killens (more info to follow)

Friday: Bellevue

Saturday: Delaware State Championship Meet at Killens Pond State Park in Felton, DE

Bus departure time will be posted later in the week.

We can only run our Top 7 runners in the State Meet; however, we would LOVE to have the JV join us at practice this week. We also expect you all to come down to Killens Pond and cheer on your teammates on Saturday!

Have a great Week!

Coach Flanagan :)
