But here we are at the start of a new season.
The first thing you need to know about this year's team is that we only have TWO seniors on the squad. TWO. That's certainly never happened before and is definitely a result of the lost 2020 COVID season. We are still recovering from that. So Grant Giblin and Zee Ebert will be our entire senior representatives. And I'm sure they will both have great years for the Eagles.
Our first test of the season will be at the Lyons Township Mike Kuharic Invitational on Saturday, September 2nd. My kids ran for LT for eight years starting in the 1990's, so I've been going to this meet for about 30 years now. I love starting off the year here. It's a great spectator course - easy to see the runners many, many times - which is especially great for the new parents. I also like the fact that there is a separate Frosh-only race - allowing those kids to stand out in their first big race!
Welcome aboard everyone. 2023 is going to be the start of something really big!
