MEET RESULTS


MEET VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We have one more home meet taking place this season and help is always appreciated. Our meet last Tuesday went well, although the weather forced us to end early. The JV/MS meet on Friday went so well we ended at 7:30. Much of the success of these meets was due to volunteer help.

If you would like to help with our last meet, please sign-up using the link below. Your help is greatly appreciated.
