Coach Jared and Jayne
Jayne and Friend, Chisom

We were at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh both Saturday and Sunday for the USA Track and Field National Qualifying meet.  Athletes from six states competed, and only the top 5 would go to Baltimore, Maryland for the USATF National Junior Olympics.  Jayne qualified in the 100m dash, taking 4th place in both the preliminary race on Saturday and the finals on Sunday.  She just missed qualifying in the 200m dash, placing 6th.

We will be leaving for Baltimore July 24th, and Jayne will run in the quarter finals of the 100m dash on Wednesday, July 25th.  Semi-finals are July 27th, with finals on the 29th.
