Section 1 Class B championships 2013

      Section One Sectional State Qualifying Meet

            At Bowdoin Park, Wappingers, NY

                   Friday, November 1, 2013

MEDALS TO TOP 10 PLACES IN EACH RACE

Winning team wins Sectional Champs Plaque and 2^nd place team wind runner-up Sectional Plaque

WINNING TEAM AND TOP 5 INDIVIDUALS NOT ON THE WINNING TEAM ADVANCE TO THE STATE MEET IN EACH VARSITY RACE.

It was a good race for us. Despite missing two of our top 5 runners (Jack Fozard to injury and Tom Wray), the team posted an 18:43 team time average on a wet course and placed 9^th of 15 teams in a very deep field. The course was running

Approximately 30 seconds slow on the day. 

Senior Matt Maliniak ran a courageous race. He went out strong but smart and put himself in position to qualify for the State Meet. With less than 700 meters to go, he was the seventh individual in the race. He was still close with 200 meters to go and gave it all he had. His final place does not tell the real story of his race or how close he was to making States.

With our number 3-10 runners and more returning, the future is bright for the team. Many of our freshman ran their only their 2^nd ever 5K and first 5K at Bowdoin.

Somers Booster Club 2013

 “The purpose of the Somers Track and Field Booster Club is to support the athletes in the track and field and cross country programs and to support the coaches in their efforts to offer an exceptional athletic experience to Somers student-athletes, by volunteering and by providing financial assistance above and beyond what is allocated in the annual district athletic budget.”

The Somers Track and Field Booster Club is a parent-run organization that supports the Somers track team tradition of excellence in both athletic training and team building.

Our organization supports the girls’ and the boys’ cross country and winter and spring track and field teams through:

  

·         Volunteering to support the coaches and the athletes by:

·         Handling uniform and apparel sales,

·         Working at the Big Red (fall) or Lion’s Club (spring) meets (there are many jobs for parents to do before, during and after each meet -- course/track clean-up and set-up, parking, course direction, finish line administration, score reporting and awards, just to name a few),

·         Planning or helping out at team events (such as pre-meet pasta dinners, end of season pizza parties and awards dinners), and

·         Coordinating or shopping for food and beverages for major meets to help the athletes replenish after their races and events.

·         Fundraising specifically targeted to cover the costs of:

·         Awarding Senior Scholarships to cross country, track & field athletes,

·         Stipends to assistant coaches that are not covered by the district budget in order to maintain the quality and safety of the coaching and athletic program,

·         Equipment purchased to enhance current and future programs – the focus this year is purchasing new flights of hurdles, and

·         Transportation or fees for special training opportunities or events not otherwise covered by the district budget.

On-going fundraising programs include a concession stand and t-shirt sales at home meets, a spring car wash, a wine tasting event, and any profits from the Big Red and Lion’s Club meets held at Somers.

If you are interested in learning more or in volunteering, please contact Julie Gorecki at gorbj@comcast.net, Carolyn Worsley at worsleyfamily@optonline.net or Jay Hashmall at jbhashmall@optonline.net .

We welcome everyone to come to our monthly meetings (the dates are below) and to support the program in any way that you are able.  Our first meeting is October 2^nd.   

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
