2nd at Gilmour Invitational


The Coat of Arms of Hogwarts, featuring scarlet and gold Gryffindor colours with the mascot Lion, yellow and black of Hufflepuff with  the symbolic badger, bronze and blue Ravenclaw colours with an eagle, and Slytherin green and silver with a serpent mascot.
Congratulations to the varsity team on their 2nd Place finish and to the open team on their 3rd place finish at Hogwarts!  You girls really rose to the challenge after a hard week of practice and we couldn't be happier with the results! Overall we had 19 season PR's and 14 LIFETIME PR's... which is amazing given that you are still working through the hardest part of the training program. Can't wait to see what happens once you have a little rest ; )

Top 7 Finishers:

Hanna Sterle (19:30)
Alyse Arko (20:10 - LIFETIME PR)
Megan Mohney (20:24 - LIFETIME PR)
Hallie Bechtel (20:44 - LIFETIME PR)
Maureen Piccirilli (21:11 - LIFETIME PR)
Andrea Hanna (21:17 - LIFETIME PR)
Maggie Harter (21:24 - Season PR)



Trophy Sleepover Winner: Maureen Piccirilli

Maureen ran a lifetime PR of 21:11….her goal was to break 22:00 and she crushed that goal! We are sure that the next goal of breaking 21:00 is totally attainable before the end of the season. Keep up the hard work Maureen, you lead by example and all your dedication is paying off! Congrats! (but take it easy on us….all these great runs make us tear up….what will the other coaches think ?!?)
Golden Spike Winners:

Eliz Fulop: Eliz has worked hard all season and finally broke that 23:00 mark… she didn’t just break it, she smoked it by running a 22:28! What a great lifetime PR! Eliz finished 10th on our team this week, which is fantastic! You truly do give it your all Eliz, in practice and in races, and we admire your motivation and dedication! Congrats! We think your next goal should be breaking 22:00- you can do it! 

Izzy Zitiello: Izzy ran her lifetime PR on Friday and crushed her previous time by well over a minute! Izzy finished 9th for our team and did such a wonderful job. You definitely showed us what you’re capable of Izzy, and we know that there is more where that came from! We can’t wait to see how fast you run at Fostoria- maybe top 7?

REMINDERS:
Be sure to check the results for Gilmour on the right, you will see your mile splits and total time broken down.  Also the season results grid has times from each meet this season as well as times from 2008 and 2009 if you would like to compare!
