DXC Update - Pre-Region and BYU

Darts - 
We are coming off of a very busy week and heading into another very important week. We have decided NOT to attend the region meet at Viewmont on Wednesday this week. We feel like we have had plenty of racing the past 8 days (3 races) and we would like to really put our focus on the Murray Invitational this week on Friday. Murray is a great course and we are going to see some very strong competition. We will have a normal after school practice on Wednesday.

Pre-Region - We saw all of the teams from our region on Wednesday at Layton Park for the 2 mile pre-region race. It was a very strong showing for the Darts. The varsity boys put 14 guys in the top 18 (including 2-12), to score 19 boys and get the victory over 2nd place Layton. Jacob Vaughan had our fastest time of the day with 9:58. The varsity girls saw similar success with 15 of the top 21 places. Aubrey Argyle was the individual champ with 11:54. 14 girls under 13:00 is a team record. The JV Girls also set a team record, sweeping the top 26 places. Sara Miller ran a patient race to get the victory in 13:11. The boys JV shattered the same team record by sweeping the top 36 spots (last year was the record at 26). Overall, it was a great performance and I saw a lot of toughness and a lot of teamwork. One of the things I was the most stoked about was our 9th grade boys. Our top 5 freshman ran 11:05, 11:08, 11:09, 11:12, and 11:15. It might be the strongest freshman performance we have ever had at the pre-region meet. In comparison, when our current seniors were in 9th grade, their top 5 times were 11:12, 11:13, 11:42, 12:10, and 12:16. The future is looking strong. Full results can be found at www.davisxc.blogspot.com 

BYU Invite - It has been a while since we pulled off the BYU Invite sweep, but we did it yesterday in dominating fashion. We picked up the victory in all 6 of the races. And we came home with a boat load of top finisher shirts - 70 of our runners finished in the top 30 of their race! The most dominating came in the JV boys race (19 of the top 30 places). Again, we were proud of the teamwork and the energy - and for the most part we moved well in the 2nd half of the race (our focus this week), but we feel like we can continue to develop our toughness and confidence over 3 miles. It is hard in the middle of the race, but you have to dig deep and TRUST your fitness and your abilities. We still have a LOT of work to put in - both physically and mentally! Stay hungry and set goals with each new week.
There were way too many incredible individual performances to point out, so I put all of the Davis results are at the bottom of this page, full results can be found at www.runnercard.com.

Bob Firman - The Bob Firman trip was approved (barely), and we are excited about going up to Boise in 3 weeks to face some of the best teams in the west. I have attached the Bob Firman invite list and the itinerary. It was very tough to make the list - and I wish we could take more of you. We used the first 3 races and your summer mileage participation in finalizing the numbers. If you made the invite list and you will be unable to attend, please let me know ASAP and I will fill your spot with alternates. We are going to have 2 buses with EVERY seat filled. The cost will be $110 and you will pay through the school (I will get those fees entered this week so you can pay them online). I will be asking everyone if you are attending at Tuesday's practice, so please discus with your parents. And let me know if you or your parents have any questions. 

This Week - 
Monday - Meet at the track at 8:00am. If you cannot make it, please attempt to get a hard workout in. We will be doing between 12-20 x 400m. 
Tuesday - Morning run + Distance Run (after school)
Wednesday - Distance Run + strides
Thursday - Pre-Race Day
Friday - Murray Invite
Saturday - Long Run on your own (50-80 minutes)

Happy Running!
Coach Talley
