KEY NEWCOMERS

Alley Davis, she is very versatile and is a good middle distance runner and has very good speed.

RIGHT NOW I LIKE

We have a very solid group of core athletes returners from last year and they have have great attitudes and desire to improve their performances from last year.

RIGHT NOW WE NEED TO IMPROVE

We just need to continue to get in better shape.

ANYTHING ELSE YOU’D LIKE TO SAY ABOUT TEAM
