-The first meet of the 2025 season is just over two months away and our first optional off-season workout is this Monday! These workouts are a great way to bond with teammates and prepare for the season ahead. Please remind athletes to bring their water, recovery food, and towel each day. The time together after the workout playing Ultimate and/or Nuke'Em is just as valuable as the workout itself. Everyone, especially new athletes and incoming freshmen, are strongly encouraged to stay after for these games.

-The weather couldn't stop us from have a great time competing and learning at Senior Camp. Pictures posted here.

-The final race of the 2025 Track and Field season will be this evening, Friday, June 20th, when our all-state and school record holding 4x800m relay competes at New Balance Nationals Outdoor. The estimated start time is 8:17 p.m. LiveStream link

-Wednesday, June 25th is our first Single Track Trail. Runners will meet at the Island Lake trailhead at 8 a.m. to run the 6ish mile yellow trail. These runs are ideal for fit/experienced athletes. Attending runners should be able to easily handle a 5 mile run that accidentally turns into an 8 mile run. Everyone is encouraged to attend the afternoon track and weight room session at BHS.

-Quick reminder that runners and parents need to complete the registration process and upload a current physical (dated after April 15th, 2025) to Final Forms. Everyone must have a physical uploaded to Final Forms prior to official practices beginning in August.

-This year we'll be collecting a Team Fee through Zeffy. This fee will enable the program to continue suppling chocolate milk after workouts, cover the cost of the black brighton long sleeve shirt distributed to each new athlete, and the 2025 team t-shirt distributed to all athletes.
