Region tri Meet - Cancelled due to Spring weather

Team, due to the awesome spring weather we have in Utah, the coaches though it would be better postponing the meat until April 21st. Tomorrows is supposed to be rainy/snowy and in the 30's. The perfect combination for a pulled muscle...

please come out and we will do a regular practice tomorrow...

thanks,

Andy

Pineview Invite Results - Boys Win Team Championship

Team, another great meet for individual and state qualifying performances. Many of you set new PR's and at least two of you qualified for state in an additional event. Kyle in the 100, and Zach in the Long Jump. We need to continue to work hard and as the season moves on, continue to strive for new PR's and more state qualifying marks.

Thanks for a great meet,

Coach Andy Jacobs

1st Meet of the Year - Are you Ready?

Team,

This week our team will have the opportunity to start out the track season with our first two Track Meets of the year.

On Wednesday, we will be competing against other schools in our Region at Timpanogas High School, and will be a great opportunity for everyone on the team to compete and get valuable meet experience.

On Saturday, we will be back at Timpanogas High School competing in the UHSTCA Coaches invite. This will be the first of 6 state qualifiers qualify for state. I will be able to register up to 6 athletes in each event. So, I should be able to take a fairly large portion of our team.

Every Track Meet is important, because it will gives us the opportunity to test where we are as a team as well as where you stand in relationship to your individual goals. I utilize each meet to make decisions on the next. Including who will compete, who will run in relays, etc... More importantly, I will use our meets this week to determine who will be traveling to St. George with the team for the Pineview invite.

I hope that each of you put your best effort into every chance you have to compete. In addition, I want each of you to represent OHS with the highest respect, regarding how you act, treat each other, as well as those we compete against.

I am excited about this season, and hope you are as well.

Lets have a great year,

Coach Andy Jacobs
