TWO websites.

hollistontrackalumni.blogspot.com is now up and running, with brand new results for the collegiate stars that once roamed the same halls as the rest of you.

Canned Goods Drive Tomorrow

A quick reminder that all Holliston athletes are expected to be at the gym by 8AM for the meet, and required to stay until the meet is completed.

The Holliston Food Pantry is accepting donations, and we'll have bins available tomorrow for anyone who wants to donate any canned goods.

HABA Season Pass Information

The HABA season pass, which is good for tickets to any sport's home game (except for hockey), has been reduced from $35 to $25. Passes will be available for sale during the season opening meet on Saturday.

Parent Meeting Monday

The Parents Meeting will be held Monday, December 3rd, at 6 PM in the auditorium.

Please check the post below for reminders regarding the Team Spike Night at Marathon Sports and the practice/meet schedule for the next month.

Also, the meet schedule for the season is posted on the right.

Team Spike Night / Practice Schedule

The new Marathon Sports store in Mansfield (right off of Exit 12 on Rte. 495) will be hosting our team for Holliston Spike Night on Tuesday, December 4th from 5-7. All Holliston athletes will receive 20% off all merchandise, and there may be a sponsor (Nike, New Balance, etc.) which sometimes will offer further discounts on their brand and/or free giveaways like T-shirts or spike bags.

This is a fantastic opportunity if you're looking for training shoes, or racers. They have lots of "rubber spikes" (spikes you can use on our track) available.

We'll be taking down names of athletes interested in attending, so we can arrange any carpool for those of you that can't drive.

Dan Barone, MetroWest Daily News Athlete of the Year!

Congratulations to Dan Barone, who was honored as the MetroWest Daily News Male Athlete of the Year. Here's a link to the article.

http://www.metrowestdailynews.com/editorspick_mobile/x1052259343/Daily-News-Male-Athlete-of-the-Year-Dan-Barone?zc_p=2

The paper covers about 30 towns, including most of the Tri-Valley League, but also several large schools such as Framingham, Natick, Lincoln-Sudbury, Franklin, etc. It's quite a competitive area for athletes, and it's no small feat for the three-sport superstar!

Congratulations to our two performers at today's All-State Meet.

Kylie Lorenzen finished 7th in the 200 (26.34), and was 13th in the high jump (5'2). Excellent job medaling in your first state meet!
Andrew Krauss was 10th in the 110 hurdles (15.22). He's the first Holliston boys' team member to finish in the top 10 in both the Indoor All-State Meet (55m hurdles) and Outdoor All-State Meet in over 15 years! Great finish to a sensational career!

All States postponed again, now TUESDAY

Apparently the rain is the worst on Monday, so now they've moved it back to Tuesday. I believe this is the latest they can push it back, so it should be the last postponement.

GREAT day at Div. 3!

Boys 10th with 21 points, girls 17th with 21 points - only four points outside the top 10, too!

Congratulations to all that competed. I'll go in chronological order, since it's too hard to rank such impressive performances.

We started off with the field events. In the girls javelin, Eliza Dodge moved up from 28th seed to 21st place, surpassing 1/4 of the kids ahead of her with a throw of 86'5. Fellow ace Amber Ahronian was 26th in 84'1, barely missing her seed place and capping off a sensational rookie season.

Over in the boys long jump, Andrew Krauss was 20th at 18'7.5, besting half of the kids in his flight. His day was just getting started, though...

Dan Barone didn't qualify until 10 days ago, and even then only made it by one inch at TVL's. Never satisfied, the senior hit 20'3 to make the finals and take home a medal in 8th place, despite being seeded second to last of the entire field of 25 competitors. Absolutely fantastic job! He, too, was just getting warmed up.

Cam Chisholm, bounced back after being out sick earlier this week to medal in shot put, earning sixth place with a throw of 46'6. We'll keep an eye on the other divisional meets to see if a wild card to All-States is still a possibility.

Around 10:40, the running events got underway for the Panthers. Steph Paolillo just missed her PR in the 400 hurdles, as the TVL Champion placed seventh in 68.70 seconds. Following a similar theme with the seniors, her work was not done yet! Ryan Leonard took 23rd in the boys race in 63.69, against a field that only included six sophomores and no freshmen!

The 200 trials followed. Kylie Lorenzen ran down nearly her entire heat in the trials to earn a berth in the finals, setting a new PR of 26.31 that would only last another hour or so...Dan Barone came in entered 12th, but after going from 24th to 8th in the long jump, this "uphill battle" was nothing for the star sprinter. He made the finals by running 23.37, just 0.01 off his PR from TVL's. His PR, though, was destined to fall soon.

Up next was miler Katie Salley. The freshman entered as the 39th seed, and passed 1/3 of those ahead of her according to the rankings, finishing 26th in 5:50, an impressive time given it was already about 85 degrees on the frying pan that was Pembroke's track!

In the 110 meter hurdle trials, sophomore Logan Cotto lowered his PR to 16.67, finishing 15th after being seeded 25th. Quite the leap up the leaderboard! Senior Andrew Krauss made the finals with the 2nd-best time of 15.17. With 5 of the top 12 hurdlers in the entire state in the field, it was destined to be a battle royale in the finals.

Tabor Beaudry ran 11.91 to take 19th in the 100, 3 spots better than projected and a bit faster than he ran at TVL's.

Shauna Rockett, who was barely under 66 seconds as of a couple weeks ago, ran a PR of 63.69 coming in 23rd in the 400, after being ranked 29th. Great effort by a rookie sophomore!

Devin Sanford capped off a solid 400 campaign by taking seventh, with a time of 51.64 that's the fastest non-handtimed race he's ever run, earning a top-8 medal for his efforts.

Back in the field events, Logan Cotto moved up from 18th to 16th in triple jump, making 37'9.5 in an event dominated by upperclassmen.

Kylie Lorenzen was facing the only division that had four girls who had done 5'3 or better. After making 4'11, then 5'0 on her second attempt, and 5'2 as well on her second attempt, only five girls remained as the bar was raised to 5'4. She was in a tie for second on misses as one girl had made all her attempts. Every competitor missed their first attempt, but then Kylie soared over the bar at 5'4 on her second jump. Once the other four girls failed on their final attempt, the freshman had won the event, making her the first Holliston Eastern Mass Div. 3 champion since Emmaline Berg in the shot put in 2009. Excellent performance!

Back on the track, Andrew Krauss lined up against an absolutely loaded hurdle final. Once he got going, he cruised past most of the pack and took second in 15.09, missing his PR by just two hundredths of a second and most likely setting himself up as a top-8 seed for All-States!

Although the track was heating up, so was the Holliston momentum, as now two athletes were headed to All-States and a few more spots were about to be filled.

In the 200 finals, Kylie was in the first heat (5th-8th seed), and with a great start, took the lead by 100m, then built a considerable lead as she crossed the tape in 25.98 seconds, lowering her PR and school record. Only two girls from the other section beat her time, as she finished in 3rd place overall!

Dan Barone had already moved up from 12th to 8th by getting into the finals. Not one to be content, he gained another spot and lowered his PR by a full tenth of a second, placing seventh in 23.26!

In the girls 800, Kaylee Kozubal ran a great time of 2:25.21, just missing the top-8 medals and recording her second-fastest time even in the sweltering heat. Her day was not over, though...

The 4x100 relay teams were next to go, and both stepped up with phenomenal performances. The girls team was seeded 12th, and had a freshman (Cassandra Kelly) that had never run the relay before. Never one to back down from a challenge, the girls ran their best race of the year. Morgann McKunes got a great start, and made a clean handoff to Kelly, who motored down the straightaway. Thanks to the first two legs, the girls were already in the middle of the pack despite being seeded as the last team in the heat. Kelly passed to Caroline Clancy, who as usual dominated the turn and moved the team into third before passing to anchor Nicole Kerrigan. Nikki ran a fantastic straightaway, closing a 5 yard gap on Medfield and finishing second in our heat, ninth overall in 52.71, a full 0.46 faster than at TVL's!

The boys were next on the track. Max Athy lead off, and had a great handoff to Tabor Beaudry, who flew down the backstretch before handing off to Andrew Krauss, who moved the team into the top two before passing off to Barone. Dan took off and had the lead with 50m to go, then created more separation as he crossed the tape in 44.91, a full 1.08 seconds faster than the same group ran on this very track one month earlier. After the seeded section only had three teams displace them, the boys had finished fourth overall, advancing to the All-State Meet!

The 4x400 relays were next. Kylie lead off with an incredible 58.9 split, letting Shauna Rockett take the baton in the lead and allowing her to make the cut-in without worrying about the traffic from the rest of the pack. Shauna split 65.9 and handed off to Steph, who kept the Wilmington team in sight as the girls pulled away from the rest of the heat. Kaylee anchored in 63.4 after Stephs' 64.3, with the girls finishing in 4:12.51, a full SEVEN seconds faster than they've run this season, and good for yet another medal in 6th overall!

The boys were next, as Ryan Leonard, Cole Osten, Duncan Robertson, and Devin Sanford finished 16th in 3:49.50.

Overall, here are the top-10 finishers. Top 8 earned medals, Top 4 finishers automatically advance to the All-State Meet.

Departure Schedule for States

If you're taking the bus, please be at the high school by 7:35. The bus leaves at 7:45.

For those of you coming in on your own, leave no later than 9:30. It'll take at least 1 hr and 15 minutes to get to Pembroke, and that's assuming you don't get stuck in traffic headed for the Cape on this holiday weekend.

The schedule (projected) is listed below. Get plenty of rest, and make sure you bring drinks or money for drinks for tomorrow, since it'll be hot out. We do have the tent, so we should be okay.

State Meet Order/Seeds

Here's the order of events, with the seeds based on the performance list.

First Field Events (9:30)
Boys Shot Put - Chisholm (5th) last flight
Boys Long Jump - Krauss (15th), Barone (24th), both first flight - 25 total
Girls Javelin - Ahronian (21st), Dodge (28th) - 33 total, may be 3 flights or 2. If 3, Ahronian could be middle flight, if two, probably both first flight.

Second Field Events (depends how soon the other gender finishes. Pay attention as the other gender finishes, so you know when to check back in!)
Boys Triple Jump - Cotto (18th) of 25, 1st flight
Girls High Jump - Lorenzen (tied-3rd) opening height probably 4'10"

Girls 2nd, Boys 3rd in HUGE day at TVLs!

Today was a fantastic day for Holliston track, as the girls team finished 2nd with 76 points, and the boys 3rd with 72 points. Considering the girls were fourth and the boys fifth in the regular season standings, that is the definition of stepping it up! That also marks the best combined team finish in the TVL!

In 52 possible cases, 37 times a Holliston athlete either matched or exceeded their projected place! At the bottom of the post, you'll see two cases of kids coming out of nowhere to get a spot on the podium!

We won EIGHT events
Kylie Lorenzen (triple winner!) - 200, Long Jump, High Jump
Dan Barone (double winner!) - 100, 200

It was a LONG day, but well worth it for Holliston Track!

We started with the Freshman/Sophomore Meet at Westwood. Kylie Lorenzen was named Outstanding Performer of the Meet, thanks to utterly dominating her three events.
High Jump - 1st place, 5'3, ties meet record
Long Jump - 1st place, 16'8.5, missed meet record by 1/2 inch, won by nearly a foot!
200 - 2nd place, 26.49 seconds, breaks own school record!
Quite an impressive day for our young star! All three events were PR's!

Logan Cotto was fourth in the 110 hurdles (16.71, PR!), fourth in the Triple Jump (39'5)
Jack Boyd PR'd by 10 seconds in the mile, and broke five minutes! (4:58.88) 15th overall!
Liam Doyle 5:17.75 in the mile, Tanner Datz 5:21.69, both close to their seed times
Ed Glazebrook's best going into today was 11:14, but he ripped off a 10:57 for a huge PR!

Katie Salley just missed her PR, finishing in 12:42 which I believe was top-12.
Rachel Kriegsman was 16th in javelin, 71'2

On to Twilight
Cam Chisholm took sixth in the shot put at 49'9, his best this season by over 3 feet!

Andrew Krauss finished seventh in the 110 hurdles in 16.20
Tabor Beaudry ran 12.04 in the 100
Devin Sanford ran 51-mid, due to a clerking error his time wasn't recorded, but he turned a 5-yard deficit into a 8-yard runaway win for his heat!

Nicole Kerrigan was 2nd in her heat of the 100, 13.74
Steph Paolillo took 12th in the 400 hurdles, 69.56, barely missing a PR

3 Medals at State Relays!

Great job by everyone at the Div. 3 Relays today!
Of the eight teams we sent, six placed in the top 10, five in the top eight, and three earned medals for fifth-place finishes!

The girls long jump got things started with a solid 5th place finish, as Kylie Lorenzen (16'3), Nicole Kerrigan (15'2, PR), and Cassandra Kelly (14'9, PR) combined for over 45'. The first few places were only inches away, fantastic job ladies!

The girls javelin came in 10th, as Eliza Dodge (82'10), Amber Ahronian (78'1.5) and Rachel Kriegsman (76'2) all were within a few feet (or inches, in one case) of their PR's.

The boys 4x100 team of Max Athy, Tabor Beaudry, Andrew Krauss, and Dan Barone qualified for states with a 5th place finish in 45.99!

The girls discus team was 19th, Carly Leonard (68'6, PR), Rachel Sullivan (72'4, PR), and Steph Berard (58'0) did well against a deep field.

The girls 4x100 lowered their state-qualifying time to 53.63, with splits of 13.6 (Morgann McKunes), 14.5 (Briana Crowley), 13.5 (Caroline Clancy), and 12.0 (Kylie Lorenzen). They finished eighth overall!

The girls distance medley took seventh, just missing the top-6 medals, as Anna Mannello (1200, 4:17), Cassandra Kelly (400, 69.9), Kaylee Kozubal (800, 2:29.0), and Katie Salley (1600, 5:56) finished in 13:52.

The boys discus results weren't posted when we left, I'll add those later.

Last but certainly not least, the girls 4x4 won their heat and finished fifth overall in 4:19.92, a full four seconds faster than their previous best. Steph Paolillo opened in 63.0, Shauna Rockett was next in 68.5, Nicole Kerrigan 65.1, and Kaylee Kozubal anchored in 63.6 after running the 800 in the DMR just 15 minutes earlier!

Remember, please be at the parking lot by 2:25 for departure to Dover-Sherborn tomorrow.

D3 Relays Note (Important Update*)

***UPDATE*** - Forgot to remind everyone, if you're on a running relay, any (visible) undergarments have to match. So any guys that compression shorts under your red track shorts, please be advised.

It's supposed to start out around 40 degrees and only get up to mid-50s, with wind, so dress accordingly.

If you are in a morning event (girls field or boys running), you have to be at Pembroke High School no later than 9 AM. It's about an hour from Holliston. Please note you have to be driven by a parent. Coach Moreau and Coach Kelley will be at Pembroke when you arrive.

This bus will be taking everyone back that needs a ride, so if you were in the morning group and also have an afternoon event, you can of course come back on the bus.

Practice Options for this Week

Due to the high number of people taking Driver's Ed or working at jobs this week, we're having a 5PM practice option each day (today through Friday). So if you can't make the 10-12 block, please stop by for the 5PM one.

Practice Notes/League Standings & Rankings

We have practice from 10AM-Noon on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.

I thought it'd be easier if I posted the league top 10s and standings here, since the sidebar kept putting the girls' results way below the boys.

Practice note for this week

I posted the practice schedule for the next few weeks earlier, but just a reminder that we're at 2:30 today through Friday. We will have a shorter practice on Friday, so anyone going to the Freshman/Sophomore semiformal will be out in time to get ready.

Later in the week, I'll post the order of events for dual meets. It's the same at each one, so you should get in the habit of memorizing when you're likely to race.

Don't forget to bring warm clothes for this week. Remember, if it's too warm, you can always leave them in your locker.

Outdoor Track Meeting Wednesday

There will be a meeting for those interested in Outdoor Track on Wednesday, March 14th, at 2:15 in the cafeteria.

I'll post the meet schedule for the spring once it's finalized.

All State Recap / Banquet News

The banquet starts at 6:30 in the cafeteria on Wednesday night. Seniors are asked to come at 5:30 to help set up.

Pizza, Calzone, and Salads from Stone Hearth Pizza will be served. A gluten-free pizza option is also provided.

Freshman & Juniors - Desserts
Sophomores & Seniors - Single Serving Beverages (Water Bottle, for example)

If you haven't already done so, send $10 per family to Leslie Sanford, 12 Turner Road, Holliston MA 01746, and let her know how many people you're bringing.

At the All-State Meet, Andrew Krauss led the way with a 9th place finish in the hurdles at 7.93, just missing the finals. It's the highest place a member of the boys' team has finished at All-States since 1993. Cam Chisholm was 21st in the shot put (45'3), and Rachel Everett was tied for 16th in the high jump at 5'0.

All-State Seeds - Krauss, Chisholm and Everett!

After a few days of "scoreboard watching", we know who's going to All-States, and where they're seeded.

Each event takes 12 automatic qualifiers (the top 3 finishers in each of the 4 division), plus the next 12 best performances after that (wild cards). In cases of the high jump, where kids are tied, they take everyone at that height.

Record clairification, All-State Notes

Sorry to the Fantastic Four of Beaudry, Slattery, Krauss, and Sanford, but upon further review you guys just missed the school record, which was 1:36.38 set at the 2001 All-State Meet. It's the fastest any Holliston team has ever run at the Division 3 Meet, and the fact you guys finished 7th despite being seeded 17th is a fantastic accomplishment in of itself.

We have some "scoreboard watching" to do for All-States. The way it works is the top 3 finishers in each of the 4 divisions automatically get to go, plus the next 12 best performances regardless of division. Krauss is already in for the hurdles, Everett and Chisholm still have a chance. The Division 4 results were posted online, so the lists below are updated with only the Division 1 Meet tomorrow remaining.

Hurdles (Krauss already in, I'll list his overall rank)
7.68 - Cross, Falmouth (Div. 2 champion)
7.78 - Raimo, Marbelehead
7.79 - McCarthy, Walpole (Div. 2 runner-up)
7.82 - KRAUSS, HOLLISTON
*The winner of Division 4 was 7.91

Here's the Shot Put, I'm only listing the wild cards (everyone that's not in as an automatic). Cam has to be in the top 12 for this list to make it.

49-10.25 - Staub, Dracut (Div. 2)
49-9.75 - Jennings, Wilmington (Div. 3)
49-3.75 - White, Bourne (Div. 3)
49-0.5 - CHISHOLM, HOLLISTON
No potential wild cards threw over 49' in the Div. 4 meet

High Jump - I have to double-check, but if the last wild card is at a certain height, I think they take everyone from the division that made it. In other words, they'll take more than the usual 24 kids (12 automatics, 12 wild cards).

Division 3 - 8 non-automatic qualifiers at 5'0 (Rachel 3rd among them on tiebreakers)
Division 2 - 3 non-automatic qualifiers at 5'0
Division 4 - 3 non-automatic qualifiers at 5'0
I'll update this list after Div. 1 tomorrow.

Krauss Breaks Record, Many PR's/Medals, Great Day at Div. 3 Meet!

Nine athletes wore Holliston uniforms today.
All nine either beat their seed, PR'd, or medaled...or did all three!

I'll go in chronological order, since it's hard for me to rank the success stories!

Girls Dash - Caroline ran 7.91, finishing in 19th place after being seeded 27th!
Girls Mile - Jill set an indoor PR with a time of 5:35, matching her seed with 14th place
Girls 600 - Steph ran 1:47.22, a new PR finishing 24th after being seeeded 35th!
Boys 300 - Devin ran 38.31, just missing his PR but taking 12th (seeded 17th)
Boys Shot Put - Cam threw 49'3, taking 6th place and likely earning a wild card bid to All-States (we'll know by Sunday)
Girls High Jump - Rachel tied for fifth, setting an indoor PR with a jump of 5'0!
Boys Hurdles - Jimmy Krauss finished second in 7.82, lowering his TVL record by 0.03 seconds!
Boys Dash - Tabor ran 6.89, finishing seventh and having the fastest TVL time of the day!
Boys 4x200 - Seeded 17th (fourth to last!) the boys earned a medal by finishing 7th, the biggest jump of any relay team today! They just missed the 11-year old school record by 0.17 seconds.

The boys also had their highest point total (15) and finish (10th place) since at least 1997 (the furthest back coolrunning results are available)

Boys Team Finish
1. Pembroke
2. Bishop Feehan
3. Hingham
4. Hopkinton
5. Somerset
6. Nashoba
7. Marblehead
8. Burlington
9. Canton
10. HOLLISTON

Div. 3 State Meet Schedule

Here's an approximate schedule for the Division 3 State Meet.

4:30 Hurdles & Dash Trials (Krauss, Clancy, Beaudry)
High Jump (Everett) will start after the trials. The trials go quickly, I'd say no later than 5.
5:00 - Girls Mile (Rosati) - either second or third heat
5:20 - Boys Mile
5:35 - Girls 600 (Paolillo) - second or third heat
5:45 - Boys 600
5:55 - Girls 1000
6:00 - ***Boys Shot put goes after girls, I'm guessing it'll take 90 minutes for them. Cam's in the last flight, so you have a while once the boys start anyway.
6:05 - Boys 1000
6:15 - Girls 300
6:20 - Boys 300 (Sanford) - second or third heat
6:20*** Hurdles and Dash trials occur after the HJ is complete, so that's unknown of course at this point. Probably around here, give or take an event.
6:25 - Girls 2 Mile (I'm assuming one heat, there's 23 kids and a few usually scratch)
6:40 - Boys 2 Mile (assuming one heat as well)
6:50 - Girls 4x800 (19 teams, 2 heats)
7:05 - Boys 4x800 (14 teams, 1 heat?)
7:15 - Girls 4x200
7:25 - Boys 4x200 (Beaudry, Slattery, Krauss, Sanford)
7:35 - Girls 4x400
7:50 - Boys 4x400

Remember to check in at first call for your events. Once you're dismissed from school at 1:30, be ready no later than 1:40.

Krauss breaks record (again), Chisholm also wins at TVLs!

Congratulations to all those who competed in the Tri-Valley League Championship.
