Lincoln Cross Country Athletes and Parents,
We are entering the last week of the season for the large majority of our athletes and we are so excited for our athletes to compete this Wednesday at the PIL District meet at Lents Park. The meet schedule is below.
2:00pm - Varsity Boys
2:45pm - Varsity Girls
3:30pm - JV Boys
4:15pm - JV Girls
We will follow up the meet with a team dinner in the cafeteria to celebrate the season. This will end by about 7:30.
We will have 2 buses take athletes to the meet and 2 buses return them. ALL athletes must ride the bus for this meet both ways due to some fun traditions we do on the bus. We will also celebrate our seniors directly after the races at Lents Park.
We will also have athletes return their singlets at the meet on Wednesday so please bring a change of clothes.
Please all athletes come to practice Thursday so we can celebrate you on last night.
Lastly, our team banquet will be on November 12th from 6-9pm at Lincoln.

Our team store is officially live. To see our team store, please use THIS LINK. For our newcomers, we ask that they purchase their own warmups. These are theirs to keep for the rest of the high school experience. If you bought track and field warmups, those work as well. On the team store you'll see that the warmups are the Relentless or Showtime tops and bottoms. We don't want cost to be a deterrent so if you need the program to provide warm-ups we'd be happy to do so.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for all you do.
