Trials

Our team trials turned out great! We will have the results to you all asap.

We announced at the meet that we would wrap up the 400m, 800m, and 200m trials on Tuesday. However, we will not have access to the track on that day so we will be deciding on who will be in those events for our first track meet (which is on Thursday) based on your participation at practice.

We will also start working on relays today at practice!

Athletes and Parents,

Above is a schedule for the location of practices for the season. Every Tuesday and Wednesday we will be meeting at Maple Mountain Track. We have allowed additional time between class and practice for athletes to find a ride to practice. We encourage parents to form carpools so that all athletes can make it to and from the track.

If inclement weather occurs, Coach Frame will make an announcement during school hours that practice will stay at Mapleton Jr. High in the gymnasium.

Important:
All athletes must keep multiple layers in their lockers i.e. sweats, a long-sleeved shirt, hoodie, beanie, gloves, rain jacket, etc. We will hold practice outside whenever possible.

Please feel free to contact Coach Benjy Frame or Coach Haley Birkeland with any questions or concerns.
