Girls won against Parkland 79-71, to end the season 7-1, which matches Easton’s record of 7-1.

Boys lost against Parkland 71-79 (funnily), but wow, it was a fantastic meet to watch. The last time Emmaus came this close to Parkland was back in 1993! (26 years ago!)

KUDOS TO BOTH TEAMS FOR ENDING THE SEASON WITH MANY BEST MARKS AND EFFORTS!

Everyone should come to practice tomorrow, Tuesday 4/30/19 for end of season talk/prepare for JV meet! I will have preliminary information tomorrow regarding League standings to post at practice.

5/1 is JV meet at PARKLAND! Bus leaves at 3:45 pm.

5/2 is uniform collection right after school for all athletes NOT participating in post season.

All track and field athletes who are eligible will be traveling to Parkland on Monday to Parkland High School for the final regular season varsity meet Monday 4/29/19! Keep focus on doing the best you can not only for the team/meet, but for your own individual account and for post season!

If you are not competing, please be ready to help in any way possible both for our team and Parkland. How can you help? Build up your teammates, cheer on your teammates, assist with hurdles, batons, water, implements, etc. Parkland has an incredible girls and boys team – congratulate them, as well, on their successes.

JV meet will be Wednesday 5/1/19 at Parkland High School!

So, let’s……. “Work hard, be prepared, and have fun!!!”

“Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn’t.”

Congratulations on the wins tonight against Freedom for both the girls and boys teams!! BOTH teams are 6-1 in the EPC League, which is simply incredible. No matter what happens in the last meet, the boys will finish the season with the BEST season finish in a long time.
