Been a long time ...

Sorry, men. Apparently, you loyal blog followers have been thirsting for a post. Here you go!

Well, with the indoor MAAC Championships coming up on Friday, I thought I should comment on the state of the team and what we should expect. In a word: CHALLENGING.

Iona is loading up the distance events (800 on up), which is not only to be expected but is as it should be. They finished 2nd in the NATION in cross country. Naturally, they will have an overabundance of fast runners in these events.

And so we do what we always do: OUR BEST. And leave it at that, and out there on the track.

Manhattan and St. Peter's are loaded up in the sprints, throws, jumps. Rider has strong athletes across the board in all disciplines. They are what they are, and we do what we do: OUR BEST.

Although the MAAC is a 5-team league for men, each team brings to the table a lot of strong qualities. It's a small meet but a good meet. A very good meet.

Captains, your job is to rally our team and make sure we are unified and our voices are heard loud and strong throughout the Armory.

That is all for now. In the next post, I will put up the MAAC Indoor Schedule for all to see ...

Coach Pete
