Panther Time Trial

Despite the heat, the team had a strong time trial Wednesday afternoon. The races started off with the youngster racing 1 mile (two 800 loops). Everyone of them ran great - especially for their first afternoon of running. Paul Gaona and Josie Bushar led the boys and girls, respectively. The high schoolers ran 2 miles (2 1200 loops and an 800 loop). Kaylee Boyer led the pack with a very strong 12:59 (22 seconds faster than the start of last season (in fact most of the girls were between 20-30 seconds faster than last year!). For the boys, Devin Gillespie ran a strong 11:03, but the best improvements were marked by the rest of the varsity boys who were running between 30 seconds to many minutes faster than last year.
Good job to everyone who pulled through the heat and pushed hard!

Thanks also to all the parents who showed up to last night's parents' meeting - the turnout was great and we covered some important material. If you need any info from the meeting email Coach Holt.
