Yes, Monte Babb finished last yesterday - technically the gator DNF'd. However, Monte recorded a new lifetime best of 31:20, nearly 4 minutes better than his previous best and 6:29 faster than last year on the same course and he kicked in the last 200m. #WesternXC #Consistency

For every small school that says "we can't do that" or "it's not fair" here's an example of a team that says "sure we can". It's not what you do starting on the first day of practice that dictates how your session will turn out. Rather, it's what you did the other 9 months.

One of our former athletes, Alex Newman, was in a bad car crash last night. While he faired better than the vehicle he was driving his recovery will take some time. So, let's keep Alex in our prayers. #WesternTrack Forces of nature are hard to stop, even the handsome ones.

The importance of running through the line. Pete Bradshaw (Lane 3) trailed nearly the entire way during the 400m dash Tuesday night but lead on the most important step - the last one. This also demonstrates the need for a good timing system.

Here's a thought: how about we quit scoring mid-week dual meets? Gets coaches to start thinking "big picture" rather than racking up bogus won-loss records. Keeps us from over-racing our kids. Colleges have been doing this for a long time. Focus on what matters.
