Season Update

It's hard to believe that the JV season is already over and we heading into the post season! Our JV team was super talented this year and in fact I kept hearing over and over throughout the year from parents and coaches what a bright future we have ahead with the talent on our JV squad.

As we head in to the League, Regional and State meets I want to make it very clear that all of our teammates (not just the competitors) are welcome and encouraged to attend all of the meets and events.

Upcoming Schedule

League Championships (MANDATORY)
Friday 10/21 - Gym set up at Paul Derda 3:30-4:30pm
Saturday 10/22- Meet 12:00pm Arrival
2:20 March In (Everyone will march in)
*There are only 5 teams in our league so the meet should run fairly quickly (2 hours) and we will need to clean up the gym at the conclusion of the meet

Regionals
We finished our season seeded 3rd (ranking was based on an average of our top-3 team scores) behind Cherry Creek (#1) and Overland (#2). Based on this seeding we will compete next Wednesday, October 26th at Rocky Mountain High School in Fort Collins. The tentative game plan will be to meet at 12:00pm for lunch at my house and then we'll head up to Fort Collins. Non-competitors are welcome to join us for lunch and the ride up so long as missing the afternoon of school is appropriate. Parents will need to personally excuse the non-competitors. We can also set up a carpool to Fort Collins for the non-competitors that leaves after school. I've attached the meet schedule for your reference.

We should be done with competition by 9pm and home by 10pm but you never do know so please use your time wisely next week and stay rested.

Qualifying to State
There are two ways to qualify as a team to the state meet; the first (and what we are shooting for) is to place 1st or 2nd at our Regional meet and automatically qualify. In addition to the top-2 teams at each regional meet the next highest 6 teams scores from any regional meet will qualify as well. It's also very important for us to post a high score at our regional because that helps determine our rotation at the state meet!

Post Season Banquet
Please take a look at your calendar and let me know if you have any glaring conflicts between November 7-15 as this is when we will try and have our end of season banquet. I'm still looking for locations and am open to input so please let me know if you have any thoughts/ideas. In previous years we've done the following:
-potluck at the Rec Center
-Banquet room at local resturants (nominal ticket fee included in this option)
-potluck/catered event at someone's home

There are pros and cons to all of these options so I'm open to whatever works and sounds best to the majority.

Thank you to everyone again for making this year such a great one...this is an exciting time of year and I can't wait to see what this talented and dedicated group of young ladies are capable of. As always please contact me with any questions and/or concerns!
