Another great meet, not 1st but a good 2nd place for the girls!

Well last night at the Blue and Gold Invitational at Fatima High School the girls didn't win, but we had come great performances. We set many personal records. The new pr's came from Wendy Weber in the 300 hurdles, Jessica Schrimpf in the 300 hurdles, Miranda Loesch in the Shot Put, the 4x200 relay team, the 4x800 relay team (they broke their own record), Hannah Schroeder in the 400, and also the 4x400 relay team. So all in all we had a pretty good meet. We had a top 6 finisher in every event except the triple jump and the pole vault. On the boys side we did our norm again, Zach Bryant won the 1600 and 3200, while Nathan Clink came home in 4th in the 3200. Not to shabby either. Great job to day.

What a Meet!

Well if you have not noticed we are having a great year. The girls as a team, have now won 6 of their 7 meets they have been in, and the boys have made great strides this year as well. And last night at the Vienna Invitational it was the same old, same old. The girls won again, and the boys did a fine job as well. It was kind of a crazy meet, with the last two events run in almost complete darkness. The two mile was cut short by a lap because of miscounting the laps. But overall it was another superb meet by your Russellville Indians. Go Big Blue! Here are the top eight results!

4 for 5 Not too Bad!

Wow! Last night was awesome. We thought that we had no way of winning because we knew North Callaway was a pretty darn good team and throughout the meet we were behind, but when all was said and done, the Russellville girls won it. Great job girls. Its amazing how many things you can learn about your athletes when you try them in different events, we had a girl that had to miss the meet and so we replaced her with another one that has never run the 400m and bam! Jessica P. did an amazing job coming around in 68 seconds. You go girl! We also had another new event at the meet, the sprint medley and we put a few different girls in that, and bam! here comes Allie R. in the 200 portion and smokes it. Great job Allie. We went to MSD looking for some answers and really all we got were some more puzzle pieces to play with. But that is not a bad thing, that is a great thing. This is what coaches live for. Now we also can't forget the boys. They did a pretty good job themselves. Out of 13 schools their, we finished 6th. Now that doesn't sound very good, but we only have 5 boys running on the team yesterday, which is pretty darn good. Zach had a great day winning the 800, 1600, and the 3200. Go Zach! We also had Alex E. place really well in the Shot and Discus. Great job all around to the Indian Track and Field Team.

Chalk up another W!

Well we did it again, last night at the Hermann Quad, we had two wins. The Varsity girls placed 1st and also the JV girls won. We did it all without the field events, as they were not run because of the rains that they had received. It was a late night but everyone did a great job. On the boys side, we only had 2 guys competing and Nathan Clink was outstanding, he won both the mile and the 2 mile races, finishing with a PR in both. Great job Nathan and all of the girls. Here are the top five finishers:
