-Optional Indoor Season workouts begin Tuesday, December 2nd! This opportunity to train with teammates has been invaluable to the sustained success of the program. Every athlete not participating in the BHS winter sport is highly encouraged to attend!
-While there is no official MHSAA indoor track season (yet), athletes do have the opportunity to compete in the Michigan Indoor Track Series (MITS) meets. Our optional club team, Natural Selection, is on athletic.net. Some meets that we are tentatively planning on competing at are not (and likely will not be) posted on athletic.net. The MITS schedule is linked here (meets are still being added). The MITS FAQ page is an excellent resource for parents new to indoor track and field. Please reach out if you have any questions about how we do indoor track and field.
-This year's Shining Stars ceremony is Monday, December 8th. Runners on the "State Team" (top 7 and alternates) will be recognized by the BAS school board. Attending athletes should meet at 6:50 and will be dismissed after their piece in the board meeting.
-Looking ahead, boys XC will be hosting a few "micro meets" at our indoor facility on some Thursday evenings. There are a couple logistical issues we're working through but we expect to host our first meet in January. More details are to come, but we will be polietly seeking a couple parent volunteers to handle admission. The utimate goal for these micro meets is to raise the funds that will enable the program to bring more athletes along on our overnight trip to Peoria (or whatever meet we choose to attend) going forward.
-Good luck to all our BXC athletes competing in winter sports!
