We had a great meet last week at Jenks! There were several PR performances highlighted by our boys 4×800 matching their state championship time from last year, only one second off the school record, and currently ranking 2nd overall in the state!
Our freshmen will compete tomorrow at Broken Arrow and our Varsity athletes will go to OU on Friday. Our JV runners will take the week off to prepare for their final meets in the next two weeks.
I don’t know if you’ve heard but a celestial event is occurring tomorrow with the moon crossing over the sun around 1:45 in the afternoon. According to science, looking directly at this so-called eclipse will blind all humans until they can no longer see with their eyes. This obviously creates an issue, as our freshmen will likely be competing on the track when the eclipse occurs. I suggest having every runner carry their school-issued eclipse glasses during their race so they can quickly and protectively put their glasses on at the critical time of the event. This will of course render them completely blind to the actual race but will save their eyes from the eclipse. Plus, there is always the chance that a bunch of runners wearing light-blocking glasses will look hilarious and hijinx will ensue. Please email our resident science teacher, Coach Graddy, if you have any questions.
Thank you for everything you do and as always…GO RAMS! – Coach Collins
