First, I forgot to mention, K had his first t-ball practice last Saturday. We went indoors for practice at a local church. The weather was cold and snowy outside, but we were warm inside. We will have 11 players. In t-ball, teams play with 10 boys in the field. There is some talent on the team and some kids ready to learn baseball. I am just a coach and not the head coach. I don't have the time to be the head coach. But, I am going to help out as much as possible.
Tonight we ran against Waterloo and Lake Center. We did not kept score against LC, because they have only 12 runners. I am ready to start keeping score against them, because we are not much bigger then them. Waterloo was stacked and will have a good season. We held them under 100 points. Sean Kirkpatrick lead the team with wins in the 1600 and 3200. He also ran the 4x800 and 4x400 relays. Jordan Douglas showed promise in the 100 and 200. He also looked good in the 400. He ran a 12.2, 25.0 and a 55.5 split in those races. Now, those times are going to get him to Columbus, but they are not bad. He does not practice with us, due to baseball. He only practices with us when it does not interfere with baseball. We did manage points in the field events. Zack Trainer and Steve Seymour scored in both the shot and discus. They are so close to breaking 40' in the shot. I think once they do that, they both could be close to 45' They still need work in the discus, but are improving. We will run at Ellet HS on Friday night. I will let know how we did here on my blog.
