Here's the thing that's facing those two kids. They're on a descending order list right now. Josh is 15th in the nation, Ellie is 7th in the pole vault. What they've got to do, they have to try and take their performance up to either get to the (NCAA) automatic or get high enough up on the descending order list to wind up in the top 14 by the end of the season. |
I think we're a little tapped out. I think it's a little more realistic that we can fill some spots in the top-12 system. |
I'm just really hoping that we come out of this thing experiencing some real momentum going into the conference meet. It's our last opportunity to build the engine, complete it and get it where it's running up to max. |
It's kind of the last chance to get on board and make the travel team to Flagstaff. For some kids it will be a big night. |
On paper it's unlikely we should beat them, but they haven't won the meet yet. |
One of the things I think collegiate track and field needs is team scoring. Someone can identify with a team that won or lost. |
This was another step for us. We made more progress getting ready for the Big Sky meet. Erin had a very good pentathlon, and we had several other athletes step up. |
We did not qualify enough (athletes to the finals) so some of the scoring we were hoping to do is not going to happen. We'll have to rely on our relay teams. |
We'll need to step up big in the women's weight throw and Jones(-Graf) needs a big triple jump. |
We've just got such great kids and such a great product, we'd just love to get the community of Bozeman in to see it. |
