I am moved by this story because I know what a great challenge it is to be the parent of a child with special needs.

It was a good first dual meet with a lot of different kids contributing in the win.

It was a really good performance by O'Brien in all events. He was consistent and to place in all three was a great effort on his part.

It was his most aggressive race of the season. It was a great mile.

They really ran well today. Anytime you can break a record, you have to be pleased.

The guys had a great week of practice and have the common goal of improving their times from last week.

The kids are excited for this meet. It just gives them a good look at the talent and competition from the central part of the state.

To do what he did in the mile and then come back and run the fastest leg on that relay (was very impressive).
