Our track teams competed well at the regional meet last week. Our top performers, who did not advance to the state meet, were: Maylee Wells (3rd place 400), Karston Long (3rd place shot put) and Lane Uttley (3rd place discus). We also have a new school record in the 4x200 relay for the boys.Congratualtions to Tripp Hudson, Mason Lavake, Omar Jacquez and Julio Valdez for their record- breaking time of 1:31.74. Great job, boys. Congratulations to Bryce Braden for advancing to the state track meet again this year. Bryce placed first, at the regional meet, in both the discus and shot put. Congratulations to the event coaches (Coach Tyler Wright for shot put and Coach Casey Lantelme for discus) as having a student athlete qualify for the state meet is quite an accomplishment. Good luck to Bryce as he looks to defend his discus title in Austin.
Our golfers fought tough conditions last week at the regional meet. The girls finished in 5th place.Thank you to Coach Mattie Mayfield for her work with the golfers this year. The golfers this year were: Cole Hinds, Tate Hudson, Tripp Hudson, Jackson Wyatt, Kooper Walden, Bo Engelbrecht, Meghan McNeely, Wylee Chambers, McKinzie Bell, Hannah McCurry, Charisse Henderson and Abigail Murphy.
Good luck to our OAP cast, crew and directors this week as they compete at the regional competition.
If they advance Saturday, the next performance will be at the state competition. This has been an outstanding run by this group and I cannot wait to see their performance this weekend. Break a leg, SOAP. Let’s line Main Street this Saturday, at 8:30 in the morning, to show this group that they are supported as they head to the regional performance.
Our UIL students will be competing this week at the regional meet. Good luck to the following students:
- Lynley Albert
- Wylee Chambers
- Kaydence Hood
- Michelle Lopez
State testing started last week. Thank you to our teachers and staff who have worked hard, all year, to prepare our students for these assessments. Thank you to our principals for ensuring that all the details are taken care of to ensure an appropriate environment during testing. We would be lost without Mrs. Hudson, our testing coordinator. She does a wonderful job of organizing everything that is needed to ensure we are following the state rules. Finally, thank you to our students for the way they worked last week. While we will continue to have testing for a few weeks, I am confident that the results will show that SISD is headed in the right direction.
Have a great week.
