Just one week after Killer was named Athlete of the Week by the Springfield Republican, Boomayay sets the school record in the 55 hurdles.

The Ladyspartans have now won 40 consecutive dual meets covering nearly 5 seasons. The road ahead gets tougher. We MUST get up for the challenges that await.

LEAGUE MEET/CLASS RELAYS

Big weekend for Boomayay. After soundly defeating her Gael counterpart and anchoring the 4 x 400 relay with a blistering 61 ( and taking out the superstar Tigerette), she led the long jump team to victory at the State Class Relays and helped the 4 x hurdle team to a school record time ( 2nd place finish). Also, anchoring the 4 x 200 team which almost snatched the school record.

Flojo,Fed Raven, CSI and Kazbah were also double medal winners as they combined to finish 3rd in the 4 x 50 shuttle dash.

Overall, the Ladyspartans finished 4th as a team...the best finish ever.

RED RAVEN, RED RAVEN!

Red Raven secured three medals yesterday. 2nd in long jump, 5th in the 55 and 6th on the 4 x 200 relay teaming with Dr. Dulittle, Red Robin and Milwaukee.

Let's not forget the Pooh Bear earned third place in the shot put!

MEET IS ON!!!

Try to get to the school as early as possible. Coach has to come through Springfield and is leaving soon. Streets in the City have not been plowed,so be patient...he still has not received his Snowspeeder from the Rebel Alliance!

NEW RECORD

The Ladyspartans were led by Killer setting a new school record in the 600 and just missing tying one in the high jump.

Boomayay took the hurdles as well as the long jump.

The streak has been extended to 35, but a wake up call in the 4 x 200 means there is much more work to be done!

CAN & BOTTLE DRIVE

Saturday morning we have to do the first of our two Can & Bottle drives. It IS the first weekend after New Year's!

Captains and Team Leaders not attending the Freshman/Sophomore Championships are responsible for running the event!
