Heat & Practice Update
As everyone knows, it’s going to get HOT. We anticipate several days next week, and possibly tomorrow, when temperatures may prevent us from practicing during 6th period.
If practice is affected, athletes will still need to report for 6th period, but we will likely move the day’s workout to the evening. Thank you in advance for your patience and flexibility in helping your athlete get to these important workouts.
Mt. Carmel Meet Update
We spoke with the team today and shared the latest information from the meet director. The updated D1 race schedule is:
10:00 – Senior/Invite Girls
10:20 – Senior/Invite Boys
11:20 – Junior Girls
11:40 – Junior Boys
12:20 – Sophomore Girls
12:40 – Sophomore Boys
1:20 – Freshman Boys
1:40 – Freshman Girls
Coach Chuck will communicate with the meet director and our varsity athletes regarding the possibility of having all varsity runners compete in the Senior/Invite races.
For the rest of the team, we strongly recommended at practice today that athletes not race at Mt. Carmel. There is a high probability that the later races will be cancelled due to the heat. Even if they are held, Mt. Carmel is a challenging course, and with another race scheduled for Tuesday, we believe getting solid workouts in is a better choice for those athletes.

Entries: This is a competitive invitational held on a challenging championship course. For athlete safety and meet management, the race includes a Safety Gate at approximately the 1.5-mile mark. Runners must reach this point within 11:00 for boys and 12:00 for girls in order to continue on the course. Because of the difficulty of the course and the required cutoff, this meet may not be the best fit for every athlete at this point in the season. Coaches will review each runner’s current fitness and recent race performances and will communicate with athletes about whether they should race in this meet.
