It is starting to be spring and we are ready!
Majerle has started playing softball with Ben Lomond High School. She made the freshmen team. She seems to enjoy it. Can't wait for that first game.
Audrey played basketball for the Highland Hikers on the JV team. She did great! She exhibits good ball handling skills and is just a bit crazy.
Dalton finished basketball with BLHS and has moved on to Track. He runs the 1 mile, 2 mile, Medley, and participates in the high jump. This is his first year high jumping and is doing quite well. His first meet was Wednesday, March 18th. He took first in the mile with a time of 4:51, first in the 2 mile with a 'slow' time of 10:47, and he took 3rd in the high jump clearing 5' 6"
His high jump was not his best because he had to do it immediately following the mile race and so his legs were not quite ready for jumping. For state competition he needs to run the mile in about 4:33 and the 2mile under 10. I believe he can do both of these. If he can run the mile in 4:20 I believe he can place at state; 4:17 or better and he can probably take first at state. If he wants to place in the 2mile he will have to shave his time to at least 9:40. They say 30 seconds is the time expected to improve in one season. If this is true the mile looks good and the 2mile will take a lot of work. The high jump is harder to tell because this is his first year attempting and he has only been working on it for about a week. He has to clear 6' to qualify for state; I think he is clearing around 5' 6"- 5' 8"? Don't know what to expect with this event.
Mom doesn't run, or play basketball or softball.
You are correct...again no pictures!
