Flashes Finish 5th at Flashrock

In another week filled with steep competition, the Flashes came out 5th behind 4 teams ranked ahead of us. The good news is that we beat Zionsville, who has beaten us twice this year and we had HUGE breakout races from Andrice Martin and Branden Hearrell. Matt Shaw and Austin Presnell proved they did not lose much with their injuries and the Flashes now go into "Training Mode" with next weekend off. We have much work to do in order to secure a spot in the State Meet. On paper, we are the 7th best team in our semi-state right now and 6 teams make it to the "big dance." Get ready to train, train, train!

Results can be found here.

Keri Hearrell has also posted pictures of the first four meets on the Facebook here.

Thanks again to the parents for your help in running the meet, setting up the tent, taking great pictures, and supporting the heck out of these boys! They will need even more support these next few weeks as they are sure to come home from practice tired often!

FC 3rd at BD To Zionsville, LN

Congratulations to the Flashes for finishing 3rd on the Varsity level and dominating the JV race at Ben Davis Invite! Todd Nolting has been kind of enough to post his pictures of the race here.

The Big-Time racing season begins this week at the FlashRock Invitational at Northview Christian Church. Our race will begin at 9:00AM and it is quite a spectacle to witness the meet, which is put on by our program and Westfield's (hence, the Flashes and Shamrocks=FlashRock). Hope to see you there!
