local athletes get some dyestatcal love HERE.
the day started out good. coach steve was early and so was the bus. everyone was in uniform and we headed up to BC. it was cool, cloudy day but the competetion was hot.
the drillers looked great in warmups and set the tone for the meet.
the day started with the high hurdles and our team looked good despite never getting to run on a proper track. plus there were timing problems and lane confusion in the results. who knows what they really ran.

i shot some shot action of collin and joel warming up. you can hear the crowd when collin lets loose on one.
the girl’s 1600 was run in two heats. sadly the heats were not seeded at all. so the top girls didnt run against each other. our sarah baker took the lead after lap two and won her heat and got second overall.
in the boys 1600, chris schwartz won but didnt take the lead till lap two. he won easily in 4:32 and our mccarthy came in fourth in 4:48.
