NEW INDOOR ALIGNMENT

Due to the influx of three schools into the PVIAC Indoor League and other things that the Athletic Directors have approved, our league shall be quite different than in years passed.

We shall no longer race LONGMEADOW (that stinks) because they were moved into the Pioneer League because of their school and team size. We also have lost NORTHAMPTON, as they are now a combined school with Smith Academy (I did not think that our Indoor by-laws actually allowed this, but I suppose those rules no longer apply).

We shall now go head to head with CHICOPEE (moved down), and we shall start competition with SOUTH HADLEY (old foe from the 90's outdoors), NEW LEADERSHIP (yes, the Coach Hodge juggernaut), and MAHAR REGIONAL (where did THEY come from?). Our division now looks like this:

ATHOL

CATHEDRAL

CHICOPEE

EAST LONGMEADOW

HOLYOKE CATHOLIC

MAHAR REGIONAL

MOHAWK TRAIL REGIONAL

NEW LEADERSHIP

PIONEER VALLEY REGIONAL

SOUTH HADLEY

It is difficult to say how this league shall work out, our mission is still to get as many athletes qualified for the State Sectionals as possible. Advance onto the State Finals and aim for the New Englands. Everyone is still responsible for achieving their own goals, even if it is simply to get into and do well at the PVIAC Championship Meet. It is ALL ABOUT IMPROVEMENT!
