The District XI Track and Field Championships will be pushed 1 day.
Tomorrow’s Day 1 events will now take place on Wednesday.
Thursday will now become Day 2.

All times will remain the same.

It is surely another very competitive year among the district, and remember a few new schools entered in our AAA category this year (such as Palisades). Attached are the official District XI Qualifiers. Last year we had 38 entries, and this year we have 43 entries. That’s 43 opportunities to turn into success!

If you don’t see your name/event on this list, unfortunately it means you did not make it into the District meet. Only names on this document will be cleared to travel with the team. There are a few spots available on the bus for anyone who would like to assist with managing during the meet, as well as supporting the team. Remind text Coach Kami if you are interested.

Attached is the EPC League Schedule for events. Click on the link below. EPC qualifiers are listed in the previous announcement. Rest, hydrate, make good nutritional choices, and focus on your goals!
