NEW YEAR'S WEEK

Difficult choices ahead this week.  We have several options. 

January 8 is Freshman/Sophomore Championships at Reggie Lewis

January 8, the PVIAC is holding a meet at Wheaton again.

January 9, Minnechaug is hosting a field event day.

I would like to go to all of them, but we need a plan to make it work.

AM GOING TO NEED TO COLLECT ALL OF YOUR PVIAC NUMBERS AND PINS MONDAY!

COVID still looms out there and some of us may be affected. Not just OUR sport or school.

WEATHER also might not cooperate with outdoor practicing, which means we shall need to figure out how to contain our workouts without getting in each other's way all week.

WE MUST MEET tomorrow and discuss, I shall also need to have a conference with Mr. Magee.

The FOLLOWING week is the Northeast Invitational at Reggie. This is a meet where EVERYONE can participate. It spans three days, but we would only consider attending on Friday and Sunday.

IF you agree to go to any of the meets, we are relying upon you to actually GO! We have had people back out on us at each of our competitions. This causes concerns from both the school and the coaching staff.

We cannot plan a meet if folks determine at the last minute they will not go. For many of these races, we have to enter our roster three days before in order to have races/heats and flights set the day of the event.

This also becomes an unnecessary expense and might push an athlete out when they could have competed.

We have to be sure and clear about where and what people are doing the next two weeks. The Sun is setting on the season, we do not wish to be caught in the dark.
