USU AGGIE INVITATIONAL

2013 Aggie Invitational


Dear Parents-


In previous seasons the Salem Hills Cross Country team has traveled to Cedar City the first weekend of October for an overnight meet.  However, due to situations outside our control we will not be able to travel to Cedar City this season.  While we are disappointed about this, we are excited to have come up with what we believe to be a great alternative.


As hopefully your son/daughter has already told you, we will be taking the Salem Hills Cross Country team to the USU Aggie Invitational on Friday-Saturday September 6th-7th.  We have never traveled to Logan for a meet before, and have heard great things about this meet.  Additionally, it will be an opportunity for us as coaches to build relationships and network with college coaches/programs in Northern Utah.


While this meet is optional, we REALLY want everyone to come with us!  We’ve done our best to keep the costs at a minimum so money hopefully won’t be a deterrent for anyone.  We are asking each athlete to pay $50.00 to the SHHS Finance office to help with the cost of the trip.  While that won’t completely cover all costs, it will be close enough to make it work!  That will include:  Bus, Hotel, Dinner, Breakfast and Race Entry Fee.  The only other cost would be some money to buy lunch on our way home after the meet.  


Here are the items needed and due dates:

  • By Wednesday, August 28th:
    • Parent Permission slip filled out and returned to Coach Thompson
  • By Friday, August 30th:
    • $50.00 paid to the SHHS Finance office

Pre-Region Results

Here are the Pre-Region meet results from Wednesday evening.  We had a great meet with the Lady Skyhawks finishing in 2nd place and the Guys finishing 1st!!!  Way to go SKYHAWKS!  We are on our way!  Now the real work begins!

It's GO TIME!!!

Ready or not, here we GO!!!  Our season officially gets under way on Wednesday evening with the Pre-Region meet at Salem Hills.  Here is the schedule:

-Athletes be there by 5:30 pm to warm-up

-Girls race @ 6:30pm

-Boys race @ 7:00pm

We could still use some more parental assistance at the race if anyone is available.  Just find coach Thompson on the track before 6:15.  (He'll be the one running around like a crazy person...)
