Varsity boys finished 6th at Kearney, out of 21 full teams,
many of which are ranked class 4 & 5 teams! This is the toughest meet we
attend, and we love it! We know if we want to run faster, we have to run
against people faster than us. There is a lot to learn about
yourself mentally, competitively, & emotionally when you're fighting for
13th or 18th instead of running out in that lead pack. We have been able
to look back at a few things that happened during that first 800m that
caused a slower than intended first mile (due to such a large field of
runners & a restart), and will make those adjustments in the future. Out
of 177 varsity boys we had 3 finish in the top 25 of the field, and all
right around their PRs!
