Hopkinton meet now on Thursday

Due to the expected rain Wednesday, as well as some issues with the jump pit at Hopkinton (like our baseball/softball field, they're in a shady part of their athletic complex so they still have some ice), the meet will be held Thursday. Athletes should meet out front for bus pickup at 2:30 PM, throwers should bring the shots/discus/javelins. Meet starts at 3:30, should be done by 6, back at Holliston by 6:15.

We'll have our team pictures inside today, at 2:30. Please wear just the uniform, you'll have time afterwards to change into your practice clothes. Don't be late!

No IMPACT testing required for spring

Although a lot of the other sports require it, outdoor track athletes do NOT need to take the IMPACT test, since we're a non-contact sport.

Friendly reminder that if you haven't already registered on familyid.com for the spring, you need to do so online by tomorrow!
