RIGHT NOW I LIKE …
Our hard work. We have many athletes who are working in two sports during this spring. Many of my athletes are dual sport athletes this season. These students are competing on a daily basis on the track and in their other sports (tennis and baseball). Multiple athletes are also weight lifting with the football team. I am glad to see the competitors that I have on the team. There is a strong desire to be successful.
RIGHT NOW WE NEED TO IMPROVE …
Due to the number of students that are doing multiple spring activities we have a tough time getting people to practice at the same time. Athletes come and go from other practices. This makes some of the technical aspects of track difficult to teach. At this point I would like to see these technical skills improved.
ANYTHING ELSE YOU’D LIKE TO SAY ABOUT TEAM
I am very impressed with the efforts that have been put in thus far.
