Boise Indoor Recap
Nampa, ID — What a great weekend!! I want to start off by saying the myself and the coaching staff are extremely proud of how the kids performed this weekend. We had a lot of season bests and personal bests all the way through the meet. The 60's started the night out on Friday and everyone did great!! We qualified 4 boys (Khalil, Cam, Ethan, and Jaymon) and 4 girls (Lizza, Keyondra, Jazz, and Becca) for the final Saturday morning. We had numerous other pr's in the event which means that......the kids hard work is paying off and they are getting faster!! Moving into the hurdles Julia qualified for the final Saturday. The 200 started off with Emily battling it out in the 1st heat and just getting out leaned at the tape, but set the stage for the excitment of the night. She also ran a new PR in the process. Maddy and Rachel also battled out in their heats to set indoor PR's and looked strong doing so!! As the heats wore on, we saw many fantastic performances by the girls. Jazz finished 2nd overall with a time of 25.90 and Lizza and Becca finishing 6th and 8th overall. Great job ladies!!! The boys kicked of the 200's next with more outstanding performances and at least 10 new pr's. A big shout out to Grant for running a Lifetime best 25.55....he was running in the 28's last year...Weight Room!!!! We capped off the night with Khalil, Jaymon and Ethan all finishing in the top 6 for the event.

All - Comers Meet
Nampa, ID — Another great day for everyone that competed. The day opened with victories in the 60h (Julia Nixon) and the 60 meter (Jasmine Devers) Almost all of our athletes recorded season bests in the 60. Their hard work is paying off. In the 200 and 400 we had some exciting races that proved that our athletes are competitors. Jaymon and Ethan pushed toward the finish in the 200 placing 1 - 2 and Aiden Barnes dug deep to fend off 2 other athletes in the 400 to cross with the victory and a season best of 53.28. Once again our girls dominated the 200 and the 400 with great races and season bests across the board. Asha joined us today for the first time since the summer and ran a very smart 200...Welcome back. The field events also saw our athletes progressing with multiple season bests. We had 3 athletes over 17' in the womens long jump. Tori, Keyondra, and Paige. Our boys, not to be outdone had PR's set by KJ, Kobe, and Brendan. Jaycob Atencio had a huge throw of 43' in the Shot....a lifetime best by about 2 feet!!!!! Our middle schoolers did it again, proving that no matter what the competition, they will go out and give it their best. Caleb Washington tied the age group record in the long jump with a jump of 14'3. Chase Sloan and Jason Honell lowered their pr's in the 200 with great races. Annie Carey set a pr in the 200 as well. Johnna Frasier and Kaleena Narus set personal bests in the Hurdles, and 400 respectively. Phoebe Waters and Kennedy Patterson had their first competition with us and looked like veterans!!! Kennidy took the 60, 200 and 400 in age group records. We finished the day with the 4x200 and we didn't drop it or get called for being out of the zone (flashback to Kansas...lol)
