Marion County

FRESHMAN COUNTY CHAMPS!

Our freshman peaked their season with a victory at Marion County on Saturday. I am so proud of this group of underdogs. They came together this season and worked hard to take home the trophy. What a great group of young runners...the future of the program is bright! Luke Moore and Collin Hassinger led the charge with all-county honors.

In the open race, we set 16 season-bests in a great effort. Andrice Martin led the charge by winning the open race in a solid 17:16.

Our varsity guys were out a bit quick and paid late, but still ended up 6th behind five great teams. Shane Wright (All-County) and Zach McCauley both set PRs for the Flashes.

Now we gear up for our conference meet on Wednesday and then it is on to the tournament!

Good luck everyone and congratulations freshmen!

Flashrock

 What an incredible meet! Thank you to all of our parent volunteers and Coach Kellison for making this meet run so smoothly. Another big thank you to Coach Lidskin from Westfield and their athletic department for organizing the event. In my opinion, the new format is much more exciting for all teams involved.

On top of that, we ran well...edging out rival Zionsville by a mere 5 points for a 14th place finish in our famous 1968 baby blue uniforms. PRs were abound for the Flashes all day and this is a testament to our hard work and training. Now we have one weekend off as we prepare for our County, Conference, and tournament series.

Ben Davis Invite

The guys ran great on a soaked Ben Davis Invite Course. This is usually the fastest course we go to, but Mother Nature turned it into the slowest! Not only was the course too wet to run on, but the new course was also about 350M long (60 seconds or so...hard to say).

Anyways, we threw time out the window today and raced hard. We ended up with two runner-up finishes behind the state's best #1 Carmel Greyhounds in both varsity and reserve. I couldn't be more proud of the way our guys performed today and how our team chemistry is developing!

Eddie "Money" Hardimon won the fighter of the week award for toughing out the end of the race and holding off a charging Chesterton runner by 2 seconds to earn FC runner-up honors on the "sixth man rule."

Survivor: Southeastway

Harrison Invitational/Labor Day 5k

The Flashes had a great day on Saturday as they placed 4th in the Harrison Invitational in Lafayette. Unfortunately, the boys reserve race was canceled at literally the last second so we invented a new race: the Labor Day 5k at a new Southeastway Park course!
