Weekend News

Coach Versaw published his Boys' NXN-SW Preview on Milesplit. This article previews the top ten teams from last year's Southwest Regionals with a few other teams highlighted. Pre-Season rankings will not be out for a several weeks. Coach Mostert is an NXN-SW ambassador for Utah (along with Coach Talley at Davis), and contributes to the coaches' poll.

Bill Meylan at Tullyrunners posted his Boys Pre-Season Rankings with AF at #10 (Davis at #5) in the Nation.

At the Timpanogos Half-Marathon, we had a fun time manning the first water station at mile 3 (although we did wake up some campers at the Sawmill Campground). Many people said thank you and complemented the job the kids did handing out water and sports drink to the participants. The kids then had a fun time running down the last ten miles of the course for their Saturday run.

Coach Dunkley won the women's division and was 5th overall in 1:11:39. SO much for retirement.
Alumna Erminia Martinez was the 15th overall woman in 1:29:32.

The Grinder and other news

Congratulations to Tyler Bell for earning his Grinder t-shirt this morning. He conquered the hill in 8:56.

This Saturday, We will be helping out at the Timp Half-Marathon at the starting line and the first water stop as a fund raiser for the Caveman Track Club. We need as many athletes and parents to help as we can possibly get. Parents, if you can help (it is very early Saturday morning), have your athlete sign up at the Wednesday morning run. We will meet at AFHS at 5:00 AM and will be done early, even with the boys running back to AFHS afterward. We need at least 35 people total.

We had our largest group ever of Cavemen who raced at the Steel Days 5k this morning.
