Covarrubias Corner

  • 鈥淎fter a week off for the Easter Holiday, it was as though both teams came out with something to prove.聽Historically, the Commerce meet is where we would hit a national qualifying mark because where the meet lands on the schedule.聽At this point of the year, we start to hit our mid-season stride and the weather normally is excellent for fast times. Today’s weather was not ideal, but times continued to drop.聽I am extremely proud of Nick, he had been working hard in the hurdles and to hit a “B” standard in his debut is impressive. He will continue to improve! Overall, it was a great day, Gabby alone scored more than 8 other schools, we set seven school records and 21 PR鈥檚. It’s coming together at the right time and it is exciting to watch!鈥
