Coach, That Wasn't a 5k

Today the Varsity guys got to the a mile time trial. An interesting twist was there was no JV football games or freshman soccer games, so we got to use De Smet's track. The boys wore the matching shorts/hat combo for the big day. After an EE + 2 lap warm up, we did some real ins and outs, and took the line. Coach Rob took out the boys in the first 200 at about 33 seconds.

Kabes took the gold, with Brian Scherping setting a 20 second PR and coming in second. The pack was all under 4:50, with Josh Goetz just over the mark, and Seamus Hamilton running 38 seconds faster than August with a PR of 5:04. It was a great race by all.

After a 4x400 that the guys dominated, it was off for a 10 minute cool down. Remember to bring warm clothes for the rest of the week, it's cold.

Quote of the Day: "Oh-oh-oh-oh-oooh-oh-oh-oh-oooh-oh-oh-oh caught in a bad romance." Seamus Hamilton practicing for the talent show.

Joke of the Day: "Coach. You should shove me in this mailbox, so when the mailman comes by, I can jump out and yell Happy Halloween!" Scherping on the cool down to Rob

Remember! Coach Traughber will be on the Big River State Preview Show TONIGHT at 7. Click here to listen.
