State Championships Results

Well, that's that! After months of planning, training, sweating, hurting and racing, the season is over. And MAN what a successful season it was! We, as coaches, entered the season with the hope of perhaps winning a Region championship, and the goal of getting both boys and girls teams to State. As athletes, you did one better--you won TWO Region Championships on your way to qualifying for the State Championships.

Then, at the State meet on Wednesday, you went out there and showed the state of Utah that Salem Hills High School will be a POWER in Cross-country in the years to come. Justin Sly, who finished 16th overall, led the boys team to a strong 8th place finish, while the girls finished an AMAZING 4th place, led by the duo of Cosette Stone (17th overall), and Megan Curtis (19th). Awesome job all 14 of you! For those of you who are seniors, your hard-work, commitment and leadership will be missed. For you who are underclassmen, we look forward to next year taking our team to the next level! Go Skyhawks!

For those of you going to California, we will have a meeting after school on MONDAY, then resume practicing on WEDNESDAY. We'll practice officially as a team 3 days a week (Mon, Wed, and Thurs). The other days are on your own as athletes. We'll discuss all this and other important information at the meeting, so plan on being there Monday for a few minutes after school.
