Wed practice switched from Geneva to SJA

Practice Wed Jan 25 was originally scheduled to be at Geneva because we were anticipating snow/ice all January. However we are lucky enough to have a clear track and clear day this Wednesday, so we will be staying at SJA for practice. This will save us time and money.

You should be done by 4:45 (5pm for those doing some little extras).

thanks! Coach Kieser

First Meet in the books!

A new season is upon us for track and field and the SJA Jaguars started the indoor track and field season at the Spire Institute in Geneva. 26 athletes made the trip and shook off winter's rust to get some good competition in.

SJA walked away with 2 first place finishes - the Distance Medley team of Mallory Fahey ('15), Lauren Marconi ('15), Helen Steve ('13), and Emily Bauer ('13) cruised to victory. Also earning a first place was senior Maggey Urban, who won the weight throw in her very first competition ever!

Some indoor school records are pending verification, most notably Brenna McGrath's time in the 60m dash finals as well as Mary Kate Caja's time in the 60m hurdle finals.

Team results are linked to the right...overall event-by-event results are linked below. Congrats to all on a very solid start. Now we know where we are and what we specifically need to work on.
