  • Graduating Seniors - let us know where you will be attending college/university next year so I can add it to the 2012 Alumni List.  Even if you are going right into the working world, let us know where that is!
  • The Summer event schedule is starting to fill up. If you have a track & field or XC related event taking place and want to get it on the schedule, email me.
  • VOLUNTEERS NEEDED - Two major track events being held this June is in need of volunteers to assist organizers in running the meet.  You do not have to be an official but you must be able to help direct the athletes to areas of competition, help setup competition areas, etc.  Please read event list or contact Mike Bordonaro for details or to volunteer.
  • Former Allegany-Limestone and Penn State throws standout, Blake Eaton is pursuing an Olympic dream and is looking to raise funds to get him to the Olympic trials this summer.  T-shirts (click here to see image) are being sold for $15/each as a fundraiser.  Please contact A-L coach, Mike Wilber to order. Consider this as a worthy cause and support Blake in his quest.
  • I need Spotlight candidates...coaches, please encourage your student-athletes to send in a completed questionnaire.  Student-athletes...you're certainly not shy asking me to take your picture, so step up!
  • SENIOR PORTRAITS - Check out the new Senior Portrait gallery where samples of the photo sessions will be posted.  Please email me if you are interested in setting up a session.

TRUE INSPIRATION
Something to think about when you tell your coach you can't push yourself any further.  Love the look on this kid's face!
