This past weekend we competed against DC in our annual cross-town scrimmage. Congrats to Christian Alley and Ciara Baker for taking home the individual victories, and to Kaleb Kolbe and Caroline Mello for winning top overall freshmen. For the third year in a row CV came out with a win in the boys/girls combined race.
It was an excellent starting point for our teams, but there's still plenty of work to be done. Show up this week ready to work hard be a great teammate!
Please make sure that you have communicated with Coach Lyons if you would like to rent your uniform shorts from the team for this season. If you do not, the expectation is that you will buy your own shorts in the exact style that is linked below. Our first race is on Friday August 25th, so they need to be here by then.

There are two available styles (BLACK COLOR ONLY) and athletes MUST CHOOSE BETWEEN ONLY THE FOLLOWING TWO STYLES. Shorts will need to be ordered by Friday, August 11th.
BOA Men's 1" Elite Split Shorts (MUST BE BLACK)
OR
BOA Men's 3" Half Split Shorts (MUST BE BLACK)
If you decide to purchase the team shorts please fill out THIS form (you DO NOT need to fill out the form if you are not purchasing your own shorts).
Girls Team Racing Shorts
This season, the girls team will have the same option for race shorts as last year. Athletes MUST race in solid black shorts. Most athletes chose the following NIKE style. However, you may choose other brands and or loose fitting shorts as long as they are SOLID BLACK. We will cover this in more detail at the parent meeting.
