SCAC

Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference 2008 Track Championships
at DePauw, Indiana

It was spectacular! The wind was terrible! I had fun.

Girls: 800 runners Molly, Chelsea, Jocelyn, and our 400 runner Brittney got third in the 4x400 relay! This victory was totally out of nowhere considering they didn't think they were very competitive in the race. Don't ask about my 100m or javelin, I did nothing special. Ashley Poland ran her first 10k ever, got second, and basically ran two 5ks back-to-back at 20:15, which is faster than I've ever run a single 5k. Anyway. Chelsea had an awesome 800 PR, and was very pleased.

Boys: Brad did awesome! Brad put on a major kick to get second in the 800! It was so exciting. Then Julian, who's been foot-injured for a month, won the 5k with an okay time. Our big star Logan Boccard had kind of a bad race in the finals (400m hurdles) and so we don't know if he or Julian qualified for Nationals at Occidental, even though we all know the two of them would be real podium contenders in the races there. They have another chance at Air Force to qualify, though. In kind of sad news, Jesse (Heaton) ran his last track race ever as hard as he possibly could and didn't break 2 minutes. It was heartbreaking to watch.

For personal news: I wasn't late to anything over the trip, I wore tons of sunscreen, and got really tan.
