help improve looking passing relay running team work
Our relay team did well. We just need to work on passing the baton, but that's something that we can work on and improve on. Also, not looking back while we're running will help out.
conquered fear hurdles running time
That was her first time running the 100 hurdles and she did OK. I think she's conquered her fear of the hurdles and I think those times will come down.
finally helping spin starting
She's finally starting to spin and that's helping her.
four last position puts top year
That puts her in a position to compete. That's a two-foot PR for her from last year and puts her in the top four throwers in the league.
consistent good kevin league second shot sitting stays throws
Right now Kevin is sitting in second in league with that 43-9 throw. If he stays consistent with his throws at this range, he's got a good shot at going to state.
either great ran running time work
It was the first time she ran either of those races. She's got great running form, we just have to work on her speed.
focused goal keeps might potential practiced qualify shot year
He's really focused on the shot -- his goal is to get to 47 this year and that would automatically qualify him for state. He has the potential to get to 45 -- 47 might be a stretch, but if he keeps working he can get there. He hasn't really practiced the discus much because his focus has been on the shot.
continue definitely goes harder improve needed points practicing time
She's had a lot of time off and she's practicing a lot harder right now, but she was a little rusty. She'll continue to improve as time goes on. She definitely scored some needed points for us.
competing competitor freshmen good leg looks speed spot three top
That was three freshmen and a sophomore. Zach showed a lot of speed in his 100 leg of the relay, so he looks like he'll be a good competitor in the 100 for us, and could be competing for a top three spot in the long jump.
focused hard kevin toward
Kevin is really focused on getting 47 feet. He's working hard toward that.
extra following great helping kevin kids potential technique throw
That was great to see him throw 95-10 (in the discus. There is a lot of potential there with him being just a freshman. He's a little guy, but he's working on his technique and that's really helping him. He's one of the kids that is just following Kevin around and doing the extra stuff.
approach expect far girl good great jump meet middle program record school springs work
She's come from our middle school program and she is a girl who has a lot of potential. She doesn't have a lot of speed, but she has great springs in her legs. We're going to work on her approach and form, and I expect good things from her. To go out on her first meet and jump 4-8, she's not far off from the school record (5-3) and she's only a freshman.
came challenged distance herself minutes six trying work year
This year she came out and challenged herself to be a distance runner. We're trying to get her down to six minutes (in the 1,500). I think with her work ethic, she can do it.
trying
We're trying to get her in the mid-90's. If she can get up there, I think that can get her to state.
