State MVP and All-State

Congrats to Trevor Thompson for being named State MVP and Corey Kimzey and Tyson Boyer for being named to the All-State team!

Nike SW Regionals

The boys team came into NSW with big hope and expectations. However, we knew it would be very difficult to reach our goal of a trip to the national championships. The race was held at the Toka Sticks Golf Course in Mesa, Az. It was a nice layout that looked to be very fast. Leading the PVXC Club was Tyson Boyer in 43 (27th scoring) in a time of 16:03, followed closely by Trevor Thompson in 16:04 (45/29). The best race of the day was put in by Ryan Nielsen who ran a strong 16:06 (50/32). Rounding out our scoring was Corey Kimzey in 16:23 (81/55) and Devin Gillespie in 16:30 (103/69). Finishing out our 7 were Michael Finch in 17:47 and Casey Kimzey in 18:20. Although the race was a bit of a disappointment, we did place 5th with a 212 behind 4 nationally ranked programs: AF-44, Ft. Collins-88, Davis-93, and Albuquerque-172. It was a great season and I am very proud of all we accomplished!

October Athletes of the Month

Rachel Heinrich and Devin Gillespie were our Athletes of the Month for October. Both Juniors, Rachel and Devin have played a crucial role on our teams for the last three years.
Rachel was one of our team captains this year and provided a certain spark and fire for our team. Her race at Region was huge and would have placed us a point up had no other runners caught someone on the final straight.
Devin's best performance this year came at State where he took 14th place (13th scoring) and set himself up as the 3rd returner in our new 3A classification for next year.
Great job Rachel and Devo - looking forward to another year of great running from you guys.

Harrier Rankings

PVXC has never been ranked in the Harrier Magazine Super 25 - until now! 17th... Great job guys.
