XC STATE CHAMPIONSHIP

How do you get ready for a BIG race?

#1 Have cool signs on your house and lockers...and quotes with carb-loading bread
#2 SLEEP IN... DON'T go to school and eat breakfast with FRIENDS!
#3 Dance or "rock out" to EFY music after studying the scriptures with your friends :)
You have to go to the meet in STYLE so decorating the bus is a MUST!
These girls are READY!
Jac had a plan... don't start out too fast, which has worked really well in the past few races. This race the start pace was a little too slow...




Jac did her best to catch up to the front group but the gap was larger than she hoped... 
Right before the last stretch this girl passed Jac... NOT for long though! Jac passed her and took her spot in 10th place which is 1st TEAM ALL-STATE!
Not to mention she took 40 seconds off last years time!
The top 10 (8 pictured) in the STATE!
Lehi girls brought home the 2nd place trophy!
This has been a SWEEET season!
Jac may not have come in at the place she wanted but she did amazing! She has already learned so many lessons and knows what to do differently next year. She is looking forward to nationals in a few weeks to work on her strategy :)
We are so proud of the amazing person you are! Coach Rowe was quoted in the newspaper talking about what a great leader Jac is, and that she has the personality that draws you to her...
so so TRUE!
Congrats Lehi! and Congrats Jacqueline!
