Promising start to the 2016 season
You Titans started the 2016 season by taking in the 43rd Annual Nike Rowland Games. While it was a small band that traveled to Etobicoke for the first meet, an All Saints tradition it seems, the small numbers were offset by some great performances.
A couple of first place finishes and some promising showings by our newest Titans, has the coach thinking very optimistically about the rest of the season.
Thomas Witkowicz competed with the best 3000m runners in the province in the Nike Invitational event. Thomas had a great race, despite being a grade 10 among much stronger grade 12 runners. A top 10 finish at this race shows Thomas’ winter training served him well. Kurdell Reason also had top a 10 finish in the 400m.
A handful of newcomers, still trying to figure out what their favorite events might be, competed in sprints, distance and field events. Josh Stanley looked strong in the 100m, Cameron Rodriguez found out he can join a faster pace group in the 1500m, Aiden Roffey is looking forward to next weeks 800m event, while Nolan Seymour shows tremendous promise in the long jump.
Meghan Myers carried over her winning ways from last season, which saw a trip to OFSAA, by taking first place in the Senior Girls Javelin. Meghan has also taken newcomer Sherall Semeniuk under her wing. The pair seem to be great luck for each other as Sherall captured first place in the junior girls javelin. Not bad for her first competition.
Your Titans are back in Etobicoke next Friday and Saturday for the Sacred Heart Classic. Hopefully, the bus will have fewer empty seats…and someone will remember his sunscreen.
