Lineup for Spire III meet Feb. 8

JV 1600--Lane, Cmolik
SP (29-10)--Pesicka, Wilson, Abbas
HJ (4-4)--Rogers, M.Drellishak, R.Drellishak
LJ (13-11 1/2)--TCP, Hill, Jordan
PV (7-0)--Larkman, Semon, Musser, M.Kelley
4x200 relay--M.Drellishak-Hill-M.Kelley-Evard
                      Boland-Januszewski-Stancak-Schnell
4x800 relay--Wagner-G.Kelley-Keim-Allen
                      Jordan-C.Conway-Blouch-Keyser
60 HH (10.92)--Corrigan-Trepczyk-R.Drellishak-Reilly
60 dash (8.30)--Fayen-Rogers-Mladoniczky-Lindway
1600 (5:40.52)--Fallon, Ambrosio
400 (64.01)--TCP, MT Conway, Kronstain
800 (2:36.34)--Allen, Wagner, G.Kelley, Mancuso
200 (27.55)--Morgan, Maruna, Carruthers, Schlueter
3200 (13:17.83)--Walsh, Musser
4x400 relay--Jordan-Keim-Morgan-TCP
                      Hill-Ambrosio-C.Conway-Fallon

The bus leaves at 3:30 as usual. They were talking about moving up the starting time for the JV mile from 5:15 to 5:00, but they have since decided not to do that. So we are back to the regular schedule--JV mile at 5:15, field events and 4x200 at 5:45.

In case you were wondering, the performances in parentheses on the above list are the performances that currently rank 16th in the Spire meets. The other division already had their third meet, so after our meet the rankings will be set. If you have designs on competing in the all-star meet on the 16th, you have to at least better the performance in parentheses.

ATHLETES OF THE MEET:

Overall MVA—Maura Jordan (2:41.3 in 4x800—first-ever 800)

Sprints—Imari Hill (67.9 in 4x4, 29.6 in 4x2, 8.24 in 55 dash)

Distance/middle distance—Olivia Fallon (2:44.1 in 4x8, 71.2 in 4x4)

Field—Grace Semon (PR 8-0 in PV)

 

Nice debuts (never done the event before)—Jordan (4x8), Maruna (4x4), Rogers (HJ).

 

Great job, Jags. I hope you had as much fun at this one as I did. Fun as in watching people step up to try new things and actually succeed; fun as in watching people deal with the pressure of competing; fun as in watching people listen to coaching and make changes. None of those things happen automatically—you have to make them happen and we had lots of people do that. We continue to progress both as a team and as individuals, which makes me happy. I believe we have lots of good things ahead of us, so keep working hard.

Overall another solid effort. However, let’s get the negative stuff out of the way first. One set of blocks was left on the bus when we arrived. This can never happen again. Someone needs to step up and take responsibility for making sure all equipment is off the bus. I don’t care if it’s a senior or a freshman or whatever. It just never can happen again. Please note that there are asterisks by many of the performances. Those are used to designate a season’s-best performance. Hopefully we will continue to see lots of asterisks as the season progresses.

 

 

ATHLETES OF THE MEET:

Overall MVA—Maggie Wagner (2:30.7 in 4x8, 64.8 in 4x4)

Sprints—Haley Morgan (27.82 in 200, 65.7 in 4x4)

Distance/middle distance—Amanda Keim (PR 5:33.54 in 1600, 65.3 in 4x4)

Field—Natalie Larkman (8-6 in PV)

The bus leaves SJA at 8:30 am. The meet directors say the meet should be over by 2:30—we shall see. The track at BW is 200 meters long, while the track at Spire is 300 meters long. What that means is the turns are tighter. Also, while the surface at BW is good, it is not as good as Spire. Thus, what we are looking for here is effort instead of performance. It is possible you could give a better effort than you did at Spire but have a worse result. Those in the hurdles and short sprint should also note that the distance is 55 meters and not 60—not a huge difference, but in those events your time is likely to be faster Sunday no matter what. Again, don’t get too hung up on your performance but instead focus on your effort and your technique.

Our goal as a program is to constantly improve and then peak at the end of the season. It’s a little different with indoor track, since you don’t want to peak too much in early March. But the point is that I’m hoping you will show improvement from the first meet. You should be in slightly better shape and you also should have a better idea of what is expected of you. If you focus on your effort and your technique, then the results will take care of themselves. At this point I would rather be process-driven instead of result-driven. As always, focus on what you can control—your effort, your attitude and your technique.
