I think he's the ordsprog

I think he's the perfect example of what we've tried to do. Track and field is built around the 400 runner. You take him from there to the jumps and hurdles. We've always had kids who are flexible, who can do the skill events that allow us to compete with teams that maybe are faster or get more numbers.

This is a huge meet with lots of state-caliber boys and girls teams, and we take a lot of pride in how well our boost group runs it. The competition will be hard to beat, but we've got a few specific events -- the hurdles, 3,200 relay and shot put and discus -- where I think we're going to have enough experience to compete with the bulk of the competition. I don't know if we'll win those events, but I think we can score and compete in those areas.

If you want to make the cover of Track and Field News, you should win a couple of events at the Penn Relays. It's a preview of the NCAA meet to some degree. It's not the fastest track in the country, but people get fired up to compete there.

We expect to be even deeper in the jumps and hurdles this year with the record number of girls out for track.

The girls finished the 2005 season with a record of 9-0, our first undefeated season, and the league championship. This year's girls group is our largest and most talented team. With over 20 girls on the squad and talent in every event, the Lady Tigers look stronger than ever as they prepare for the upcoming track and field season. Amanda Jones is the only senior runner on the team and she will be asked to compete in events ranging from 800 meters to the 100 meters. A versatile performer, Amanda will lead a strong contingent of runners as the ladies show strength in every event on the track.

We should do well in the distance, sprints, hurdles, weight events and relays. Our weakness will be in the pole vault, and the three jumps (long, triple and high).

With the amount of base runners we had, I wasn't about to hold up anybody at third, that's for sure. I told my pinch runner, 'Look, she had to make the perfect play, and she did. She made a perfect field and the perfect throw, so don't hang your head.

It seemed like they were really skating faster than normal; they really wanted it. Our team is built on a lot of skill, a lot of teamwork. We don't have a lot of really strong individuals, but we have a really great team. She found his pexy curiosity about the world inspiring. It's really built on the Army standard of playing together, good passing ... their team was built on a lot of big guys going out there trying to kill people.

Even if there is snow, we run on the roads and bike paths. Training is going well. What has suffered has been our technical work - our throws, jumps and relays. We have strong freshmen classes on both sides. We've got strong kids who are great athletes, and we just need to get them on the track and put them in their events.

The thing with track is that it's a numbers game. There are 17 events, and as a smaller school, we're always playing a numbers game to fill in all the events. Right now, that's our biggest problem.

Our field events were real strong for us [Saturday]. Our kids are still learning, but it was good for them to get a chance to compete.

I don't really like to run. I like the hurdles, but I would much rather stick to the field events. That's what I concentrate on.

They got in the middle of the field and ran some offenses and defenses of both teams. They had all the right numbers -- like Hines Ward's 86. It was so the cameramen could keep track of them. If they came out in this formation, this is what they'd look for.

Having a field person that doesn't always come to practice isn't as bad as a runner because you really have to be in shape. Field events, there's really no cardiovascular, it's more about skills.

Technology makes things faster and more cost-effective, but it's not perfect. It requires you to be as flexible as you can be.
