**ANNOUNCEMENTS**
Practice today is: suspended until March 15th
Spring break practice begins on Monday, March 15th, at 9am at the O'Neal School activities center. This is a change from the originally scheduled location.
Practice is from 3:45-5:30 behind the Activities Center. Our first meet is scheduled for April 15th at American Hebrew Academy. At this time all of our 4 meets are scheduled between April 15th and 29th. You must attend 4 seasonal meets to be eligible to run/throw at the state meet on May 14th and 15th. If you are committed for the season, plan on giving these dates to your parents as soon as possible so that they can plan family events around them.
What’s New: Namely, Coach Kazior. He is joining us this year from The Greenhill School in Dallas, TX. He is a committed runner in his free time and has coached both track and xc in Texas and xc here. Coach Kazior will be primarily working with the middle distance runners as their principal coach. We will also be welcoming Heather Weeks (upper school Spanish teacher) to the team as often as she is able. Mrs. Weeks ran college track for ASU and we look forward to her participation.
For the 2010 season the NCISAA has released the following performance standards for entry into the state championship:
