JV Championships Info

2:00pm Field Event start (we are still in session for school so parking will be minimal). We will start with both boys and girls Long Jump using both pits.

Field Events will be 4 attempts, no finals. We would like to keep a 2 hour open pit time for the field events. (2:00pm – 4:00pm and 4:30pm – 6:30pm)

2:30pm Track Event start with the 3200m

3:15pm Sprint Med with a rolling schedule to follow. Our desire is to get the Long Jump and High Jump events going with minimal track check-out interruption.
League coaches can decide how much time is needed between the 200m and the 1600m relay.

We will score 9 places (10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1) and 6 places, double points in relays (20, 16, 12, 8, 4, 2).

Only the top 4 athletes from each school in an event can score and only 1 relay team from each school. No need to designate your “A” team, we will score your highest finisher.

Ribbons will be at the finish line. Please stay at the finish of the race and take your 1st-6th place ribbon right after the event. Please tell your highest field event placers to grab their ribbons.

Liberty Bell Info

• Pole Vault is on Thursday at 3:30pm
• Friday is rolling.  We will not go 15mins ahead of time.  Scratch meeting on Friday has been moved to 3:45pm since school will be getting out at 3:30pm.
• Saturday is a set schedule.  
• Tell your athletes that they will be recognized on a podium for placing 1-3 on Saturday and given a medal (Pole Vault too).  

Friday: Standard check-in tent will be at the 50yd line. 

Saturday: For check-in, the athletes just need to show up at that tent before their running event and they will be staged.  

Schedule

Entries will be out Monday night. We will be going after relays big time this week in order to try and qualify as many relays as possible.

Duplicates

Apologies if you get this email multiple times, with not everyone getting emails via the roster that was used for registration we will also be sending it out via IC.

Week 5- JV @ Ranch, Varsity at TJ Twilight (Friday)

 Team,

Last week JV crushed it at Pondo and varsity took a week off from racing and had a solid training week. This week we are back to business for both JV and varsity!

The Week Ahead

Thursday we will host the JV meet this week. Varsity athletes will be released from access at 2:20 to get their workout in quickly before helping out at the meet. It is a varsity requirement that they are there for the whole meet and do their assigned jobs. JV will obviously be competing but are expected to help clean up after they are done.

Friday (not Saturday) this week is the TJ Twilight Meet at All-City Stadium (located at Denver South High School). Athletes are expected to go to 1st hour on Friday and will be excused from 3rd-7th. A couple notes on that, if an athlete is not competing until later and wants to stay at school they are more than welcome. Also, if an athlete wants to come to the meet and cheer on the team that is allowed as well. The one thing we don't want is an athlete to not go to class and not be at the meet, it is the expectation that they are either in class or at All-City Stadium. 

We've received two different schedules, one in email and one on milesplit. I have an email to the meet director for guidance. If it changes from this schedule I'll email the athletes directly. 

Here are our entries for Friday - again, if you don't see your name that means you will be going JV this week. 

Fundraising

Thank you so much for those that fundraised. Today is our last day. If you did not fundraise we ask that you make a donation to the team. We do not ask for booster dues and this is our only fundraiser so please consider donating to help us continue to pay for assistant coaches, new equipment, and help support our team and athletes.
