My field event coaches really do a great job getting those girls ready. My coaches work really hard on their individual events and it's them that really put it together for us.

I think she likes the competition of the big meets. She has a great ability to focus, and that rubs off on the other kids. She had some injury problems last year, but she's really worked hard to get herself in good shape for this season.

Our field events are going to be a real positive. They'll get us some points early and we'll start the running events in a good position.
build core good hard indoor kids meet nice opening seen team train work
We have a good core of kids to build the team around, and that's really encouraging. I've seen these kids work very hard during the indoor season, and now we're going to see what we're about ... It's nice to train but opening day and that first meet is always exciting.
experiment full help indoor kids meets move outdoor people team together trying
We're trying to find where kids can help our team and get some confidence. Indoor meets are non-scoring meets, so you can move people around and experiment a bit. You can find out what you really have before you put together your full lineup for the outdoor season.
knew score tried
We tried some different combinations. We experimented in things, so we knew we wouldn't score as many points.
confidence everybody hard
Up and down the lineup, everybody pitched in. I think this will give us confidence to keep working hard and keep getting better.
