What great numbers we had for our first day of summer XC workouts! Lots of spring sport guys still get an extra week off and despite that we had lots of new faces! SO excited for this group!

Missing (2) athletes but these GHS track athletes get to compete in Regionals at Warsaw HS Thursday night where they will try to earn a trip to the state championship. Special thanks to the Italian Grille for the amazing meal, our athletic department for letting our athletes carb-up, and our amazing head track coach, Mallory Diederich for the amount of effort she puts into all of our athletes and our staff! Excited to watch these guys compete!

After night long negotiations, we have our guest “motivational speaker”, Jacob Reynolds, to talk with our 4x800 guys who are preparing for regionals. Our guest speakers fee: 6 coney dogs, look me up Reynolds!

When you have gifted athletes who are mentally strong special things can happen, excited for regionals/proud of this group!

Congratulations to our men’s 4x8 team of Carter Fielden, Carter Coffman, Aiden Boltz & Carson Terrell who broke the school record with a time of 8:07.46!! The previous record was set in 2008 with a time of 8:20.59 (Hahn, Custer, Salas & Branscum). Huge PR and record breaking time!

When the port-a-pot gets delivered in front of your school because the track is getting replaced, you wanna be the first to use it/not the last! 😂

Attaching our June calendar for summer XC athletes, high school and middle school. Note the date athletes need their new physicals to be able to participate. Also, because the track will be under construction we will meet in the GHS student parking lot each day.

We had an end of the year "Academic Celebration" program today at Garrett High School for our underclassmen (freshman, sophomores, and juniors) and we had several of our distance athletes (along with non distance athletes) win major awards and we are very proud of them, great work in the classroom!!!

Every single one of these athletes (all freshman and sophomore’s) PR’d in at least 1 of their events at last weeks conference meet. A few highlights were Kaidance Green PR’ing in the 800 by over 5 seconds and going under 2:30 for the first time, Emerlynn Toney PR’ing in the 3200 by 22 seconds, and Freshman Ethan Terrell PR’ing by over 7 seconds in the mile and coming so close to getting under 5 minutes. Very proud of this young group and hope for more PR’s in next weeks sectionals.
