  • 12 all-state performances
  • 1 relay state championship (video/interview)
  • 2 individual state championships (video)

Uniform Return
When: June 28th-July 2nd
How: Wash your uniform before returning it and place in a plastic bag/ziplock bag with your name written on it. Bring your uniform to the main entrance of MVHS and place inside the box labeled "track uniforms". 
Uniform Fines: Athletes that do not turn in uniforms will have an athletic fine with the office of $50 for uniform tops, and $50 for uniform bottoms that are not returned. 

Time Off In-between Track and XC Summer Running
  • After your last race of the season, take 2 full weeks off from running. Let your body recuperate after a long season of training and racing. Active rest is fine. You can play basketball, hike, bike, or anything else that you enjoy doing, but no running! 
  • After your two weeks off from running you can return to team summer practices. 
  • Here is a schedule to help yo determine when to start showing up for summer running:
    • State Meet is your last race: Return to running on Monday, July 12th
    • League Meet was your last race: Return to running on Monday, July 5th
    • Liberty Bell/JV Champs was your last race: Return to running on Monday, June 28th
  • Need more time than 2 weeks? Talk to the coaches about it, but nobody should return to training until they are feeling refreshed, mentally ready, and motivated to do so. 
For some of you taking time off is a HUGE challenge, but trust me when I say your body will thank you for it when you are running fast during XC in the fall. ​
