Week 21 and State Recap


Just an absolutely amazing week for PVXC!  The State meet turned out to be our most successful ever.  The goal of the team all year was to have our best meet at State and we truly did.

The Rowdies were all over and making all sorts of noise for the Panthers and it had a huge influence.

The Girls claimed our first State Title since 2001.  And did so in record setting fashion.  Our 85:15 time was a team record by 2 minutes and the 4th fastest 3A time ever!  Our team got out strong and continually moved up throughout the race.  Leading the way was Rylee, who set a new school record on her way to claiming 5th pace.  Just behind her was Jessica who in taking 6th was the fastest Freshman in all divisions!  Caroline and Josie made 2nd Team All-State with their 8th and 11th place performances.  And Jacey (15th) and Ellie (19th) made 3rd Team All-State.  Addi also had one of her best races of the season and displaced scorers from every team but 3! The girls finished 4th in the Utah merge and defeated the #23 and 24 teams in the nation!

The Boys finished an unbelievable race just 4 points off DH.  In doing so, we placed 3 runners on 1st Team All-State: Carson (5th), Dallen (6th), and Mitch (7th); Julien as 2nd Team All-State; and Alex 3rd Team All-State.  And Logan and Spencer both displaced runners from every single team except DH!  Our team time was a new team record by nearly 30 secs over the 4A State Champion team of 2010 that was ranked as high as #13 in the nation and finished the season ranked #27!

Just one last thing, a huge thanks from the coaches for all that you have done this year.  Parents, thanks for trusting with your kids.  Hopefully we have had a positive influence on them (because they have on ours).  Athletes, thanks for your hard work and dedication.  You have not only grown a ton yourselves, you have helped others around you do things they never dreamed possible.  Those who are moving on to other winter sports... have fun!  We'll see you guys back at track in the spring.  Those who aren't doing a winter sport... Please keep coming out!  Whether you are going with us to Nike or not, keep coming out!  The only way to become a better runner is to run.  We love having all of you around and want you to keep being part of this program - through the winter, in the spring, and into next year and beyond.  Thanks Again!
