ON TO STATE!!!!

She did it!!!!! Jessica ran the open 400 in 59 seconds flat. It was a very close race but she ended up second by a tenth of a second. The top two make it to state and she is in!!! Jess was very excited and relieved after all the stress of the day. The sprint medley team was in a tough battle with the fourth best time in the district. When Jess got the battan they were in 4th and she pulled them up to 3rd. They did finish 3rd but they take the top two from each district and then the top 8 times in the state. Jess ran a 58.5 second split for her 400 in the relay and the time they finished in was good. I looked on the website today and it looks like the relay team made it to state as well!!!!!

How awesome is that? Jess making it to state in two events. She will run Thursday at 1:30 for the open 400 and Saturday for the sprint medley.

Drew's baseball team won 10-9 last night. He hit a double that scored 2 runners. He also pitched a couple of innings and did well. They did hit a homerun off of him but that was the only big hit he gave up.

All in all it was a good day. Jess is at Adventureland today and Drew stayed overnight with a friend. I can't find the camera so when it turnes up I will post pictures from the track meet.
