State Meet is this weekend
Thinking of a last minute dash to lacrosse to see the races? Especially because Friday could be the last nice day of the summer.
On Friday division 2/3 events run from 9:30 to 1:00. For us that would include the girls mile at about 10:00; the girl's 800 at aboout 11:00; the boys two mile at about 12:00 and the girl's mile relay at about 12:30.
If you want to hang around friday night and watch division one ( and you should) you will need to buy a week-end all session pass.
Hotels can be a problem if you don't already have one, but goose island state park is 5 minutes up the road and you can pitch a tent for about $20. It's a very nice place, and most of your fellow campers will be students in town to watch the meet.
Saturday morning you can sleep in because the running events don't start until 1:00. All three divisions are together so things run a little slower. First event of interest would be the boy's mile at about 2:00 ( I'm just guessing on times, please do your own calculations). followed by... nothing, I think, that involves Shorewood. Someone correct me if I am missing someone.
This is a great event. The weather should be nice. Bring sunscreen and dark glasses.
Go Hounds!

P.S. there is plenty of WiFi on campus so if someone is going and has an iphone and or a computer and would be willing to post results let me know.
