2015 Season Awards

Our CC banquet seems so long ago now, but on Monday, November 9th we acknowledged these runners with well-deserved awards:

Most Dedicated - Thomas Wilkin
Most Improved - Alex Baum
Spirit Award - Josiah Sommer
Junior High Runner of the Year - Kainoa Victor

Motivation for 2016 Season-
Summer and off-season training are the keys for any individual and team success in distance running...and it's no different at Trinity.

Many of you have had a chance to see what an improved summer of training has already done to establish a routine of running, which leads to faster times and better racing.  Let's keep the growth of this cross country program going by each doing our part to improve and have the patience to stick with training!

Every runner should evaluate their own situation and determine what the next step in their training should be to improve - it will be different for everyone based on experience, previous summer training, and age. If you have questions, please ask me...I would be glad to help.

There is no magic method to becoming a better and faster runner, but I can give you some important advice a previous coach of mine imparted on me:

Coach: "Do you know the secret to becoming a better runner? To run. And run some more. And do it often."

Seems simple doesn't it? ...but when the cold winter months or the busy summer months roll around, it gets harder and harder to be diligent in training...to keep the routine and remember that consistency in training is the best way to improve.

Thank you-
I want to say thanks again to the parents and families of the cross country runners for hosting events, providing transportation, working at meets, and for your support and patience throughout the season. It can be a big challenge for coaches with such a large group of athletes, but we are always impressed with the willingness of so many to chip in and help out as needed.  Our success comes from your involvement and the positive team atmosphere you help us instill in the program.

State Meet Results

Hello,

Saturday was a great day to be a Tri-Hawk runner. 

The girls team got off to a great start with two individual all-state medalists - Becca Wilkin (5th) and Grace Ennis (9th) - and the team earned a trip to the medal stand again in 2015 with a 3rd place team finish! 

The boys team followed that up with an individual all-state performance from Henry Brink (13th) and finishing 5th place as a team.  A top 5 team finish in our first boys team appearance at the State Meet is an outstanding achievement.

Trinity CC - Week Twelve Schedule

Hello,

We have entered the final week of the cross country season, with our Boys and Girls teams preparing for the State Meet.

For many runners the official cross country season has ended. Practices are optional for any runners that are not running at the State Meet, but practice is no longer a required commitment...and those continuing to train for the Nike Regional meet will join us most days. It is a great way to extend your training with teammates while we still have great weather!

Here's the schedule for the upcoming week...please note the shorter practice times:

Week Twelve Schedule:
Monday, November 2nd - 3:30-5:00pm at Trinity School
Tuesday, November 3rd - 3:00-7:30pm - going to St. Olaf College - We will leave immediately following the school day and run the course for Saturday. If any CC runners would like to make the trip, we have a limited number of seats - please let me know as soon as possible. We also plan to eat supper in Northfield before returning to Trinity around 7:30pm.
Wednesday, November 4th - Run On Your Own - option to run at 6:45am at Trinity School
Thursday, November 5th - 3:30-5:00pm at Trinity School
Friday, November 6th - 1:00-5:00pm - Pre-Meet Social at St. Olaf College - We will leave Trinity at 1:00pm and go to Northfield to pickup our registration packet, participate in the pre-meet practice time and event program, and come back to Trinity by 5:00pm.  Because we will be getting out of school...only those running will plan to make the trip with the coaches.  For everyone else, this is a Run On Your Own day.
Saturday, November 7th - State Meet at St. Olaf College - Class A Girls Race at 1:00pm, Class A Boys Race at 2:00pm. We plan to take a caravan from Trinity at 10:30am to be at the race site by 11:30am.  We will stay through the Class A awards ceremony that will start around 3:00pm and finish around 3:45pm.  We do plan to stop somewhere to eat on the way back from the meet on the edge of the Metro Area and bring kids from the caravan back to Trinity around 6:30pm.

We are hoping that many teammates and fans can make the trip to Northfield to cheer on the Trinity cross country teams at State!

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Jesse

Section 4A Meet Results

Hello,

Thanks to all the family and friends that came out to cheer on your Tri-Hawk runners for the Section 4A Meet at Battle Creek Park yesterday!

Both teams came through with a fantastic effort and have earned a trip to the State Meet next Saturday!

This is the first appearance at State for the Trinity boys team...they were able to hold off a talented Minnehaha Academy squad on Thursday to bring home their first-ever Section 4A title. 

The girls team battled a bunch of ranked teams and were edged by a tough Blake team 61-63 for the Section 4A championship, but they advance to State with their second-place finish and have hopes to defend their Class A State title next Saturday.

Swain Invitational Results

Hello,

It was a strange feeling to be in Duluth for the Swain Invitational and have a beautiful day in the 50s with no rain. 

Tri-Hawk runners embraced the hilly and challenging course again this year.  We have never had so many personal record times at the Swain course, which is a testament to the weather and the toughness of our runners.

If what we had a chance to see from our runners on Saturday is any indication, it should be a very exciting late October/early November for Trinity cross country!
