At meets it is imperative that you check in with a coach when you arrive and check out with a coach when you leave. Failure to do so will result in disciplinary action. 9/10/17

  • Transportation- If you are in need of a ride to practice or meet it is imperative that you talk to a Coach or teammate to make arrangements as soon as possible.

  • Injuries- If you are injured, please talk to one of the coaching staff immediately and before we start stretching. The longer you wait, the harder it becomes for us and the athletic trainer to help you.
