As many of you know my wife and I are the track coaches at Alabama Christian Academy. We took over a program that had a few good athletes, but not much as a team. This year in the halls we have spent recruiting the best athletes to come out and run for us. We have had 3 meets now and are starting to hit stride.
Yesterday was the most recent meet we have had. We easily won JH boys, JH girls, SH girls and SH boys mostly because of our numbers (we have about 3 times as many people as the next closest teams). But we had several kids actually lower their times in the mile 20 seconds or more. For those non-runners that is an amazing feat to accomplish. We also had an 8th grader win the 800 meters by 25 seconds over everyone else.
Jamey's girls are starting to show they will also be a force at the state meet. She has one that has a legit shot at winning state in 4 (really 5, but we are only allowed to run them in 4) events. She also has several girls that are becoming close to marks needed to go to state.The best news...Jamey has no seniors and I only have 1.
