I know I'm a crowing mom, but WOW. Josh just got home a little while ago from practice and said he decided to try the long jump. He jumped 21'6"!! This was his first attempt ever jumping.
Asked if he was going to attempt it tomorrow at conference and he said probably not. Maybe he will try it during AAU season.
I'm going to be a screaming MelB tomorrow in White Hall. Going to make a better attempt at getting his sprints recorded than my attempt at Monticello. I kept forgetting I was holding the camera and got carried away in the moment. ;D
I really wish Chapel put more energy into their boys' track program. :'(
Cool.
Speaking of great performances, did anyone see what Evan Hooper, the 8th grader from Cabot, did at his conference championships?
Won the 100 in 11.59
Won the 200 in 23.47
Won the 400 in 52.18
Won the long jump with a leap of 20'3"
Anchored the 4x400 team to a 2nd place finish.
Wow again. Awesome performance Mr. Evan Hooper!!
