Hunter Naisbitt had a top performance as his 181'02" throw in the discus was a school record and the #10 all-time mark in Utah history. Mayra Franco set a school record in winning the 200m dash in 26.00, a state qualifying mark. Cory Serfoss, Jonah Lewis, Chris Brown, and Preston Jackson ran 3:38.81 to qualify for state in the medley relay. Ali Morris’ 15.68 in the 100m hurdles placed 2nd and also qualified her for state. There were many great performances- no details this week. The results of this meet were also sent in a previous email.
COACH AARON HILL
Aaron Hill’s farewell will be held tomorrow (Sunday, April 24th) at 11:00 am. The address of his chapel is: 3024 S 1200 W Syracuse. Come join me on the back row. Man, we’re going to miss him.
NORTHRIDGE / FREMONT TRI-MEET
Syracuse will host the Ridge and Fremont Wednesday at 3:00 pm. In as much as it’s a “B” Day, you will not be excused from class early. 8th period will set up- the rest of you should be ready for a TEAM lap at 2:30. That means HURRY OUT!!
DAVIS HIGH INVITATIONAL
The Titans will travel to Kaysville for the 54th Davis High Invitational. Entry deadlines are this Tuesday morning. If you cannot go and did not sign the clipboard at the meet Friday, please email me. I do not want to enter anyone that will be unable to attend.
REGION RANKINGS
http://www.regiononetrack.blogspot.com/. The top 24 in each event at the end of the regular season qualify to compete in the Region Championships. They will probably not be updated until Monday night- I have to wait on all schools to send in their rankings.
There are also partial state rankings at:

ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Selected this week were Sharlie Dimick, Katelyn Davidson and Shane Russell. Sharlie had a big PR in the 1600m run Friday- she’s ready for more big improvements. Shane’s hurdle times are dropping fast- he’s ready to qualify for state in both hurdles. Katelyn performed over and above the call of duty. While sick as a dog (however sick that is) she typed almost all of the results for the junior high meet Thursday. She then got out of her sick bed to fill her commitment and PR’ed in the 800m run in the cold and wind Friday. This program cannot operate without people like Katelyn behind the scenes.
ALUMNI UPDATE
Sasha Russell ran 15.59 in the 100m hurdles and 1:09.77 in the 400m hurdles at the BYU Invitational. McKayla Williams improved her seasonal best in the 800m run to 2:18.74 at the Brutus Hamilton Invitational in California. Hannah Williams ran 4:34.12 in the 1500m run at the same meet. That is equal to about a 4:52 1600m run. Jake Rossmango ran 10:14 for the 300m steeplechase at the Michael Johnson Invitational at Baylor University.

Track Bulletin - April 17, 2011
Titan Track Bulletin - April 17, 2011
“EYES ON THE PRIZE”
In the 1980's, PBS broadcast an epic documentary titled “Eyes on the Prize”. It detailed the civil rights movement of African-Americans in the U.S. following the abolition of slavery until the 1980's. Their “prize” was simply the equal rights as promised to all in our constitution. I’d like to use that title as our slogan over the next five weeks as we head towards the conclusion of the season. Our “prize” or goal would be a couple State titles. That may seem like an unattainable goal, but in viewing results of big meets so far this year, there are only 4-5 schools with realistic chances of taking home the gold trophies. I believe we are one of those schools. Talent-wise, we will not be the favorites. How could the Titans ever attain the goal? By EVERYONE keeping their “Eyes on the Prize”. That means working harder and smarter than every other team. That means being more dedicated (getting to practice, getting there on time) than the other contenders. It means being more self-disciplined, i.e. eating right, getting proper sleep, preventing and/or taking care of injuries. It also means being disciplined in all areas of your life. Getting to class on time, keeping on top of your grades, following the Code of Conduct, etc.. This discipline will carry over to the workouts and meets. If EVERYONE, from the coaches and “stars” to the athlete ranked last in their event, gets on board, and if we all keep our “Eyes on the Prize”, it will be a great way to end the season no matter what the outcome. And it will be much easier for us to keep our Eyes on the Prize than the civil rights pioneers- we don’t have to battle fire hoses or attack dogs!!
CLEARFIELD/FREMONT TRI-MEET
The Titans picked up a couple big wins over region rivals Wednesday at Clearfield. The windy conditions hampered the performances somewhat, but not the competitiveness of the Titans. The Girls finished with 98 points to outdistance Fremont (48) and Clearfield (12). The Boys wound up with 103 points to Fremont’s 37 and Clearfield’s 34.
Picking up victories for the Girls Cambria Bitter (high jump, 4'07), Mary Pauni (shot put, 34'07), April Basinger (javelin, 102'07), Ali Morris (100m hurdles, 16.46), Rylee Garver (300m hurdles, 49.42), Mayra Franco (100m dash, 12.48), Lindsey McFarland (800m run, 2:34.0), Sharlie Dimick (1600m run, 5:45.0) and Daylyn Johnston (3200m run, 13:15.0). Ali, Rylee, Mayra and Shelby Cadwell teamed up to win the 4x100m relay in 52.11. Lindsey McFarland, Maddie Cook, Ashley Rodriguez and Erin Kibler won the medley relay. Sharlie, Rylee, Shelby Cadwell and Lindsey Bailey picked up a victory in the 4x400m relay.
Winners in the Boys’ competition included Zach Watson (pole vault, 13'06), Hunter Naisbitt (shot put, 50'07 and discus, 145'02), Shane Russell (javelin, 124'07), Jamison Nielson (110m hurdles, 15.76), Chris Brown (300m hurdles, 45.05), Jaxon Hansen (400m dash, 52.70), Mike Russell (800m run, 2:08), and Brandon Yardley (1600m, 4:57.0 and 3200m, 11:09). Jaxon, Preston Williams and Gus Salazar won the medley relay, and Jaxon, Preston, Kolton Rackham and Cory Serfoss picked up a win in the 4x400m relay.
GRIZZLY INVITE- HUGE EFFORTS!!
As has been the usual case this spring, the Titans battled the weather at the Grizzly Invitational in Logan Saturday. But WE defeated the weather and came home with some great results. With 25 teams from Utah, Idaho and Wyoming competing, the Lady Titans came back with the TEAM title. They tallied 87.25 points to Sky View’s 74. (71.25 to 56 if scoring only the normal events). The Boys were 2nd to Sky View (103.35-112), but would have won 91.35 to 80 when scoring only the normal events. If I would have known they were scoring the "steeplechase", I would have put Coaches Berrong and Wilcox in the event. No matter how the meet was scored, it was a great day for the Titans.
Mayra Franco won the 100m dash in 12.20. That is not only a school record, but the 2nd fastest time run in Utah this year. She also placed 4th in the 200 (26.60) and 6th in the long jump (15'11). Lindsey McFarland was 4th in the 400m dash (1:00.01). Sharlie Dimick ran a great 3200m run to place 5th in 12:02.0. Ali Morris had a big day finishing 3rd in the long jump (16'03, a state qualifying mark), 5th in the 100m hurdles (16.14) and 2nd in the triple jump (30'09). Her long jump effort came in probably the worst weather conditions of the day. Rylee Garver ran a great 300m hurdles- alone in a slower heat- to finish 2nd in 47.91. April Basinger threw a school record and state qualifying mark of 112'07 to place 2nd in the javelin. She also finished 8th in the discus at 90'04. Mary Pauni qualified for state in the shot put with a big PR throw of 35'04 to place 6th. Maddie Cook, Lauren Garrett, Lindsey Garrett and Daylyn Johnston placed 3rd in the medley relay running 4:41.15. Erin Kibler, Katelyn Davidson, Shay Sifuentes and Cheyna Field ran 11:51.7 to place 6th in the 4x800m relay. Rylee Garver, Takenna Hamblin, Shelby Cadwell and Lindsey McFarland ran 4:14.49 to place 3rd in the 4x400m relay.
For the Boys, Hunter Naisbitt was amazing. His winning throw of 178'11 in the discus is the #10 mark in Utah history and ranks in the top-30 nationally. He also won the shot put at 55'01. AJ Wilcox had an amazing 4' PR in the shot throwing 49'11 to place 4th. Brad Sherman also had a big (28') PR throwing 138'03 to finish 4th in the discus. Jake Zaugg cleared 12' in super-bad conditions to place 2nd in the pole vault. Kyle Arigot’s 9'06 gave him 7th place. Jaxon Worthen’s 5'09 in the high jump put him in a tie for 6th. Cory Serfoss won the long jump with a leap of 21'09 in less than ideal conditions. Chris Brown placed 4th in the 400m dash in 51.77. Preston Williams ran a fantastic race in winning the 800m run in 1:58.13 to qualify for state. Jaxon Hansen’s 4:39.5 was good enough to place 6th in the 1600m run. Shane Russell’s PR of 16.15 placed 7th in the 110m hurdles. The 4x400m relay team of Cory Serfoss, Jaxon Hansen, Preston Williams and Chris Brown won the 4x400m relay in 3:26.61, a state qualifying mark. Cory, Chris, Jaxon and Jonah Lewis won the medley relay in 3:44.21. Dylan Rossmango, Brayden Ryan, Allen Miller and Brandon Yardley placed 3rd in the 4x800m relay running 9:08.60.

or http://www.athletic.net/TrackAndField/MeetResults.aspx?Meet=118902
While this account just highlights the scoring performances, there were many more that were equally impressive. Big PR’s by so many athletes. It was a great meet and a great way to spend a Saturday.
REGION RANKINGS
The rankings are posted at: http://www.regiononetrack.blogspot.com/. The top 24 in each event at the end of the regular season qualify to compete in the Region Championships. They will probably not be updated until Monday night- I have to wait on all schools to send in their rankings.
ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Selected this week were Rylee Garver, Ali Morris, Cory Serfoss and Bradley Sherman. Rylee and Brad’s hard work is paying big dividends with huge PR’s. Cory continues to dominate the long jump and run great relay legs. And Ali continues to improve every week because of her work ethic.

“EYES ON THE PRIZE”
In the 1980's, PBS broadcast an epic documentary titled “Eyes on the Prize”. It detailed the civil rights movement of African-Americans in the U.S. following the abolition of slavery until the 1980's. Their “prize” was simply the equal rights as promised to all in our constitution. I’d like to use that title as our slogan over the next five weeks as we head towards the conclusion of the season. Our “prize” or goal would be a couple State titles. That may seem like an unattainable goal, but in viewing results of big meets so far this year, there are only 4-5 schools with realistic chances of taking home the gold trophies. I believe we are one of those schools. Talent-wise, we will not be the favorites. How could the Titans ever attain the goal? By EVERYONE keeping their “Eyes on the Prize”. That means working harder and smarter than every other team. That means being more dedicated (getting to practice, getting there on time) than the other contenders. It means being more self-disciplined, i.e. eating right, getting proper sleep, preventing and/or taking care of injuries. It also means being disciplined in all areas of your life. Getting to class on time, keeping on top of your grades, following the Code of Conduct, etc.. This discipline will carry over to the workouts and meets. If EVERYONE, from the coaches and “stars” to the athlete ranked last in their event, gets on board, and if we all keep our “Eyes on the Prize”, it will be a great way to end the season no matter what the outcome. And it will be much easier for us to keep our Eyes on the Prize than the civil rights pioneers- we don’t have to battle fire hoses or attack dogs!!
CLEARFIELD/FREMONT TRI-MEET
The Titans picked up a couple big wins over region rivals Wednesday at Clearfield. The windy conditions hampered the performances somewhat, but not the competitiveness of the Titans. The Girls finished with 98 points to outdistance Fremont (48) and Clearfield (12). The Boys wound up with 103 points to Fremont’s 37 and Clearfield’s 34.
Picking up victories for the Girls Cambria Bitter (high jump, 4'07), Mary Pauni (shot put, 34'07), April Basinger (javelin, 102'07), Ali Morris (100m hurdles, 16.46), Rylee Garver (300m hurdles, 49.42), Mayra Franco (100m dash, 12.48), Lindsey McFarland (800m run, 2:34.0), Sharlie Dimick (1600m run, 5:45.0) and Daylyn Johnston (3200m run, 13:15.0). Ali, Rylee, Mayra and Shelby Cadwell teamed up to win the 4x100m relay in 52.11. Lindsey McFarland, Maddie Cook, Ashley Rodriguez and Erin Kibler won the medley relay. Sharlie, Rylee, Shelby Cadwell and Lindsey Bailey picked up a victory in the 4x400m relay.
Winners in the Boys’ competition included Zach Watson (pole vault, 13'06), Hunter Naisbitt (shot put, 50'07 and discus, 145'02), Shane Russell (javelin, 124'07), Jamison Nielson (110m hurdles, 15.76), Chris Brown (300m hurdles, 45.05), Jaxon Hansen (400m dash, 52.70), Mike Russell (800m run, 2:08), and Brandon Yardley (1600m, 4:57.0 and 3200m, 11:09). Jaxon, Preston Williams and Gus Salazar won the medley relay, and Jaxon, Preston, Kolton Rackham and Cory Serfoss picked up a win in the 4x400m relay.
GRIZZLY INVITE- HUGE EFFORTS!!
As has been the usual case this spring, the Titans battled the weather at the Grizzly Invitational in Logan Saturday. But WE defeated the weather and came home with some great results. With 25 teams from Utah, Idaho and Wyoming competing, the Lady Titans came back with the TEAM title. They tallied 87.25 points to Sky View’s 74. (71.25 to 56 if scoring only the normal events). The Boys were 2nd to Sky View (103.35-112), but would have won 91.35 to 80 when scoring only the normal events. If I would have known they were scoring the "steeplechase", I would have put Coaches Berrong and Wilcox in the event. No matter how the meet was scored, it was a great day for the Titans.
Mayra Franco won the 100m dash in 12.20. That is not only a school record, but the 2nd fastest time run in Utah this year. She also placed 4th in the 200 (26.60) and 6th in the long jump (15'11). Lindsey McFarland was 4th in the 400m dash (1:00.01). Sharlie Dimick ran a great 3200m run to place 5th in 12:02.0. Ali Morris had a big day finishing 3rd in the long jump (16'03, a state qualifying mark), 5th in the 100m hurdles (16.14) and 2nd in the triple jump (30'09). Her long jump effort came in probably the worst weather conditions of the day. Rylee Garver ran a great 300m hurdles- alone in a slower heat- to finish 2nd in 47.91. April Basinger threw a school record and state qualifying mark of 112'07 to place 2nd in the javelin. She also finished 8th in the discus at 90'04. Mary Pauni qualified for state in the shot put with a big PR throw of 35'04 to place 6th. Maddie Cook, Lauren Garrett, Lindsey Garrett and Daylyn Johnston placed 3rd in the medley relay running 4:41.15. Erin Kibler, Katelyn Davidson, Shay Sifuentes and Cheyna Field ran 11:51.7 to place 6th in the 4x800m relay. Rylee Garver, Takenna Hamblin, Shelby Cadwell and Lindsey McFarland ran 4:14.49 to place 3rd in the 4x400m relay.
For the Boys, Hunter Naisbitt was amazing. His winning throw of 178'11 in the discus is the #10 mark in Utah history and ranks in the top-30 nationally. He also won the shot put at 55'01. AJ Wilcox had an amazing 4' PR in the shot throwing 49'11 to place 4th. Brad Sherman also had a big (28') PR throwing 138'03 to finish 4th in the discus. Jake Zaugg cleared 12' in super-bad conditions to place 2nd in the pole vault. Kyle Arigot’s 9'06 gave him 7th place. Jaxon Worthen’s 5'09 in the high jump put him in a tie for 6th. Cory Serfoss won the long jump with a leap of 21'09 in less than ideal conditions. Chris Brown placed 4th in the 400m dash in 51.77. Preston Williams ran a fantastic race in winning the 800m run in 1:58.13 to qualify for state. Jaxon Hansen’s 4:39.5 was good enough to place 6th in the 1600m run. Shane Russell’s PR of 16.15 placed 7th in the 110m hurdles. The 4x400m relay team of Cory Serfoss, Jaxon Hansen, Preston Williams and Chris Brown won the 4x400m relay in 3:26.61, a state qualifying mark. Cory, Chris, Jaxon and Jonah Lewis won the medley relay in 3:44.21. Dylan Rossmango, Brayden Ryan, Allen Miller and Brandon Yardley placed 3rd in the 4x800m relay running 9:08.60.

ARCADIA INVITATIONAL
Three Titans made the trip to California over the weekend to compete against some of the top athletes in the nation. They did a great job representing the program. Cory Serfoss battled the wind and a sore hamstring to leap 20'09 in the Open Long Jump. Hunter Naisbitt threw a school record toss of 165'04 to win the discus Friday night. That earned him a spot in the Saturday morning competition. He improved his school record to 171'02 to place 3rd, just missing a shot at the elite competition in the evening. In the Invited (elite) shot put, Hunter threw 56'10.50 to destroy his school record and place 6th. An incredible meet for Hunter. Mayra Franco improved on her school record in the 100m dash as she ran 12.48. That put her 4th in the heat and 19th out of 44 against the top sprinters in the west. Great job by all three.
SPRING BREAK WORKOUTS
Thanks to those who made the effort to get to the workouts during spring break. The hurdlers and distance runners were especially dedicated. Thanks to Coach Wilcox for not only keeping the distance runners motivated, but also feeding them. While the weather didn’t always cooperate, it was a good week of workouts.

CONGRATULATIONS
Jake Zaugg (King), Zach Watson (1st attendant) and Taylor Carlson (2nd attendant) gave the Titan Track TEAM a clean sweep of the boys Prom royalty.
ALUMNI UPDATE
Hannah Williams ran an incredible 4:34.08 1500m run to place 5th in Sacramento. That is equivalent to about 4:52 for the mile. It is the #10 mark ever for USU. McKayla Williams had a seasonal best of 2:19.66 in the 800m run at the same meet. Jake Rossmango had the privilege of running the Texas Relays- one of the biggest and oldest collegiate meets in the nation. His time wasn’t what he wanted, but just running in such a prestigious meet is an honor. Haley Busby ran a HUGE PR in the 5000m run turning in a time of 19:57 last week in Montana. She followed that up with a 2:35 in the 800 and 5:16 in the 1500 in a meet held in Spokane. Haley just continues to improve each week.

DAVIS DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIPS
This meet was a huge success for the Titan Track and Field program in many ways. The 2nd place TEAM finishes and individual accomplishments were very impressive. Even more impressive, however, was the commitment and involvement of so many athletes, parents and coaches that showed we are moving in the right direction in trying to build a total program that will be viewed as one of the elite programs in the state. Thanks to everyone that helped, as officials, setting up, selling concessions, sponsoring events, etc. A special thanks to Tara Hamblin for organizing the concessions. The feedback from athletes and coaches was very positive concerning all aspects of the meet.
The Girls had two individual winners in April Basinger and Lindsey McFarland. April won the javelin in a school record toss of 106'01". This just missed the state qualifying mark. She also finished 7th in the discus (80'03). Lindsey won the 400m dash for the 3rd straight year. Her winning time was 1:00.13. She also placed 5th in the 200m dash (27.75). Mayra Franco had a very good meet finishing 2nd in the 100m dash (12.90) and 200m dash (26.44). Sharlie Dimick was busy placing 2nd in the 3200m run (12:17.7), 5th in the 800m run (2:29.40) and 5th in the 1600m run (5:34.28). Mary Pauni picked up 3rd place finishes in the shot put (34'09) and discus (88'00). Sarah Sperry cleared 5'00 in the high jump to place 2nd, tie the school record, and qualify for state. A big WOW and a huge accomplishment. Cambria Bitter and Jaycie Smith cleared 4'06 to place 6th and 8th. Ali Morris’ 15'09 in the long jump was good enough to finish 4th. Picking up 8th place points were Takenna Hamblin (800m run, 2:33.11) and Daylyn Johnston (3200m run, 13:01.6). Lindsey, Shelby Cadwell, Rylee Garver and Lindsey Bailey ran a fast 4:18.5 to finish 2nd in the 4x400m relay. Katie Duncan, Amber Gates, Shelby and Daylyn ran 4:45.3 to place 5th in the medley relay. Mayra, Shelby, Rylee and Ali ran 53.37 to place 4th in the 4x100m relay.
The Boys were led by meet MVP Hunter Naisbitt. He won the shot put in a school record and state-leading throw of 55'08.50 to go along with his victory in the discus with a toss of 156'09. That also leads the state. He also placed 7th in the javelin (127'10). Cory Serfoss’ 21'11" winning leap in the long jump was selected as the Outstanding Performance of the Meet. Zach Watson tied his school record in the pole vault clearing 13'06 to place 2nd. Jacob Zaugg was 4th at 12'00. Jamison Nielson scored big points in the high jump (2nd, 6'00), 110m hurdles (1st, 15.94) and 300m hurdles (4th, 42.24). Shane Russell was 8th in the 110m hurdles and 6th in the 300m hurdles (42.29). Chris Brown won the 400m dash (51.63) and was 7th in the 100m dash (11.85). Michael Phelps was 8th in the 100 in 11.87. Mike Russell (54.49) and Jake Garver (55.82) were 5th and 6th in the 400m dash. Preston Williams and Jaxon Hansen had big days in the distance races. Preston finished 2nd in the 1600m run (4:30.72) and 800m run (2:03.2). Jaxon was 4th in the 1600m run (4:34.2), 5th in the 800m run (2:04.9) and 6th in the 3200m run (10:13.3). Hunter Dimick (44'00) and A.J. Wilcox (43'01) placed 6th and 8th in the shot put. Chris, Cory, Preston and Jaxon won the 4x400m relay in 3:28.97, just missing the state qualifying mark. Jeff Knighton, Tanner Jolliffe, Zach Watson and Dylan Rossmango placed 4th in the medley relay at 3:53.99. The 4x100m relay of Shane, Jamison, Michael and Taylor Carlson finished 5th in the 4x100m relay.
There were several great performances that didn’t quite make the top eight. The lady hurdlers (Ali, Cambria, Rylee, Shelby, Amber, Kenzie, Sam, Ashley, etc.) are getting very close to being forces on a region and state level as are some new throwers. Sarah Sperry, Abby Call and Ashley Perczak were just out of the medals. Laura Yacks just missed scoring in the javelin. There are many other Lady Titans that just keep working hard and PR’ing. Seeing the huge improvements from Kiersten, Shay, Erin, Paige, Katelynn, Cheyna, Katie, Maddie, and many others, is cause for excitement for the last few weeks.
The Men’s throwers are improving big time. A 6' PR in the shot put by AJ Wilcox is just one example of what can happen with a little work. With extra time being put in by people like Wade Rasmussen, Bradley Sherman, Spencer Hull, Steven Carter, Corey Cook, Jarom Hansen, Keaton Jones, etc., we should be scoring big points later in the year in the throws. Our new hurdlers are starting to drop their times. Rookies in the 400 like Garver and Russell, distance kids like Weston Atkins, Brandon Yardley, Dylan Rossmango, Connor Vickers, Andrew Skidmore, Spencer Griffin, Frank Owens are rounding into shape. When we find the right events for Jonah Lewis, Taylor Carlson, the Greenhalgh’s, Cameron Dower, Gus Salazar, Jaxon Worthen, Jace Skidmore, Matt Dunston, Tanner Jolliffe, Allen Miller, Landon Ostler, Brayden Ryan, and many others, we will be much stronger as a TEAM.
Recovering from injuries will be key to our success. When Taylee, Tom, Cory, Nick, Weston, Lizzy and others are 100%, it will make a huge difference.
Bottom line: We are a good TEAM. We can be a much better TEAM. We can even contend for State titles. But we need to train harder and be smarter than our competition. We can’t control how hard or how smart our competition trains. We can control how hard and how smart the Titans do. This includes all aspects of becoming better prepared to compete: training, nutrition, sleep, education (studying your event), etc. Let’s make sure there are no regrets at the end of the season.
ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Chosen as the Athletes of the Week were Lindsey McFarland, April Basinger, and Preston Williams, Zach Watson. Lindsey- three straight district titles in the 400 is amazing. April’s school record in the jav and continued improvement in the discus is really going to help our chances at Region and State. Preston’s big points, great times and leadership are a big key to our success. Zach continues to score big points and is always up to the challenge of trying new events.

Chris, Cory, Preston and Jaxon won the 4x400m relay in 3:28.97, just missing the state qualifying mark. Jeff Knighton, Tanner Jolliffe, Zach Watson and Dylan Rossmango placed 4th in the medley relay at 3:53.99. The 4x100m relay of Shane, Jamison, Michael and Taylor Carlson finished 5th in the 4x100m relay.
There were several great performances that didn’t quite make the top eight. The lady hurdlers (Ali, Cambria, Rylee, Shelby, Amber, Kenzie, Sam, Ashley, etc.) are getting very close to being forces on a region and state level as are some new throwers. Sarah Sperry, Abby Call and Ashley Perczak were just out of the medals. Laura Yacks just missed scoring in the javelin. There are many other Lady Titans that just keep working hard and PR’ing. Seeing the huge improvements from Kiersten, Shay, Erin, Paige, Katelynn, Cheyna, Katie, Maddie, and many others, is cause for excitement for the last few weeks.
The Men’s throwers are improving big time. A 6' PR in the shot put by AJ Wilcox is just one example of what can happen with a little work. With extra time being put in by people like Wade Rasmussen, Bradley Sherman, Spencer Hull, Steven Carter, Corey Cook, Jarom Hansen, Keaton Jones, etc., we should be scoring big points later in the year in the throws. Our new hurdlers are starting to drop their times. Rookies in the 400 like Garver and Russell, distance kids like Weston Atkins, Brandon Yardley, Dylan Rossmango, Connor Vickers, Andrew Skidmore, Spencer Griffin, Frank Owens are rounding into shape. When we find the right events for Jonah Lewis, Taylor Carlson, the Greenhalgh’s, Cameron Dower, Gus Salazar, Jaxon Worthen, Jace Skidmore, Matt Dunston, Tanner Jolliffe, Allen Miller, Landon Ostler, Brayden Ryan, and many others, we will be much stronger as a TEAM.
Recovering from injuries will be key to our success. When Taylee, Tom, Cory, Nick, Weston, Lizzy and others are 100%, it will make a huge difference.
Bottom line: We are a good TEAM. We can be a much better TEAM. We can even contend for State titles. But we need to train harder and be smarter than our competition. We can’t control how hard or how smart our competition trains. We can control how hard and how smart the Titans do. This includes all aspects of becoming better prepared to compete: training, nutrition, sleep, education (studying your event), etc. Let’s make sure there are no regrets at the end of the season.
ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Chosen as the Athletes of the Week were Lindsey McFarland, April Basinger, and Preston Williams, Zach Watson. Lindsey- three straight district titles in the 400 is amazing. April’s school record in the jav and continued improvement in the discus is really going to help our chances at Region and State. Preston’s big points, great times and leadership are a big key to our success. Zach continues to score big points and is always up to the challenge of trying new events.
REGION RANKINGS
We have our first region rankings. The top 24 in each event automatically qualify for the Region Championships. Check out the rankings to see how you rank in your event. You may want to look at another event that may be more successful for you. The rankings are posted at: http://www.regiononetrack.blogspot.com/.
ALUMNI UPDATE
Jake Rossmango ran 10:09 for the steeplechase Saturday. That is a good time, but not what he had hoped for. He will get faster. Hannah Willaims ran a great time of 4:42.44 for the 1500 meter run to place 2nd at the New Mexico Invitational. Over 25 were in the race. McKayla Williams ran 2:21 for the 800. A good start following some missed workouts due to marriage.

THANKS and GREAT WORK SO FAR
A big thanks from the coaches to all of you who are working hard to become the best you can possibly be. It’s a real pleasure to see so many staying late and seeking additional help so they can improve. Seeing someone throw farther, jump higher or run faster (how about Shay Sifuentes going from 7:28 to 6:18 in only two weeks) as a result of hard work is very, very satisfying to everyone involved in the program.
Also, a HUGE thanks to Aaron Hill, Kuyler Thompson and Derek Gann for helping in so many ways. It’s really great to see these guys out in the 35 degree weather at 6:00 still coaching and shagging throws, helping throwers reach their goals. And of course, thanks to Coaches Jones, Knight, Wilcox and Berrong for their dedication, hard work, and support.
There are many great things happening in the Titan Track and Field program- most of these great things will never score a point in a meet. But they will make for some great memories and provide some real life learning experiences.
SUPER MEET
The Titans fared well against 11 of the top teams in Utah and Wyoming last week. The Girls finished 4th, just eight points out of 2nd, and the Boys were 3rd, a mere two points from 2nd.
Lindsey McFarland was the only individual winner for the Girls as she captured the 400m dash in 59.27, a state qualifying mark. She also placed 7th in the 200m dash. Mayra Franco also qualified for state as she finished 2nd in the 100m dash in 12.75. She was also 3rd in the 200m dash. Ali Morris had a good meet finishing 3rd in the 100m hurdles (16.03) and 3rd in the long jump (15'05). Mary Pauni picked up a 3rd place finish in the shot put with a PR toss of 34'05. Also scoring for the Lady Titans were Rylee Garver (6th 300m hurdles, 51.16), Sharlie Dimick (7th, 1600m run, 5:37), and Takenna Hamblin (7th, 800m run, 2:38.7).
The Boys were led by Hunter Naisbitt’s two first place finishes. He won the shot put (53'08) and discus (163'11). Both are state qualifying marks and his discus throw was named the meet’s Outstanding Performance. Zach Watson placed 2nd in the pole vault clearing 13'06 to tie his school record and qualify for state. Cory Serfoss won the long jump with a leap of 21'11", a school record and state qualifying mark. Jamison Nielson was busy placing 2nd in the high jump (6'00), 2nd in the 110m hurdles (16.06) and 5th in the 300m hurdles (43.09). Preston Williams ran 1:59.49 to finish 2nd in the 800m run and Jaxon Hansen’s 4:36.04 was good enough to place 3rd. Chris Brown picked up a 3rd place finish in the 400m dash in 51.45 and was 7th in the 100m dash (11.84). Others scoring for the Boys included Hunter Dimick (5th shot put, 44'11"), Jake Zaugg (7th pole vault, 11'00), Spencer Hull (8th shot put, 41'01"), Shane Russell (6th 300m hurdles, 43.17), and Mike Russell (6th 400m dash, 54,66).
It was a good meet to see how we stacked up against the top kids in the state. It showed that with some commitment and hard work, the Titans can be very competitive before the season is over.
I’ve attached updated results of the meet.
ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Chosen as the Athletes of the Week were Mayra Franco and Hunter Naisbitt. Mayra not only qualified for state in the 100m dash, but defeated many of the top sprinters in the state in the process. Hunter’s winning the Outstanding Performance award at the Super Meet and qualifying for state in two events was huge.
DAVIS DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIPS
We will host the eight Davis County schools at the District Championships Tuesday and Wednesday. Events begin both days at 3:00. EVERYONE will be involved as a competitor or official. We want to make this meet a high quality event.
SPRING BREAK
We will be working out during Spring Break. If you are leaving town, we will give you workouts that you can do while on the road so you don’t slip back in your training.
