Thanks to North Johnston Coaches

A big thanks goes out to Scott Meserve and Tim Jones of North Johnston High School. These guys have put on the Conference Meet the past two years and have done a great job. Being a track coach includes many thankless hours and I just wanted to post this. North Johnston will be in the 2A ranks next year and I know for sure that I will miss their friendship.

Great job this week to all of you. The coaching staff was very impressed by all of your workouts. I will be working to slot relays for next week so we can rep some. Come prepared next week to take it up a notch. Also a big thanks to Omega Sports for Spike Night. I hope all of you got what you needed. If you did not please see me and maybe we can work something out for you as well.
