Darts,

We had a busy week with the District Championships and BYU Invite. The weather is finally starting to turn. It might actually feel like cross country season this week as we get some rain and lower temperatures.

District Championships
Because of the schedule this year, we used the district championships on Wednesday as a chance to get a solid workout in, run as a TEAM, and work on the last 800. It was fun to watch our TEAM move and finish strong. We finished first in each race. The results are attached to this email.

BYU Invite
Yesterday was the BYU invite. It was a flat, soft, and fast course at East Bay golf course. We showed a lot of improvement and we're definitely heading in the right direction as a TEAM. The Fr/So boys kicked off the racing on a very cool morning looking very strong led by Jacob Halverson. We were hard to beat as our 5th scorer crossed the line in 14th place to score 40 points to AFs 81. Sydney Hedquist then battled it out in the girls race for 2 1/2 miles before breaking away for the individual win by 17 seconds. The girls ended up in 6th place.
The Varsity Boys got to race against all the teams that beat us at Murray where we took 5th. Springville was missing one of their guys and Timpanogos didn't run their varsity, but American Fork showed up in their place (minus one of their top guys). We have some tough competition in Utah which is great to help us stay motivated and push ourselves to be better. The boys were again led by Seth and Connor who were only 4 seconds apart, but because of the depth of the field were 10 places apart. The boys took 3rd this time. The girls kinda got swallowed up at the start, but were able to find each other and work together. Ellie and Ruth finished a tenth of a second apart, and Sarah Waddoups worked through about 50 girls to almost catch up to Madeline. The JV boys and girls finished off the races with some strong performances. Depth continues to be one of our strengths as the boys took 1st and the girls took 2nd. Derek Thornton led the boys with the individual win and an unbeatable 20 points with a 1-5 spread of only 23 seconds. Jacque Smith led the girls to score 61.5 points to Lone Peak's 56. The full results for the race are found here. If you haven't already checked, you can get on and look at your mile splits and placement in the race at each split. It's good information to help analyze your race.
