Coach Van Houwe and his York Suburban team. |
First, I'll toot my daughter's horn. Her team won the recent PA District III AA team title and are headed to States with bigger goals in mind. Although Martha wasn't in the top 7, she came into her own at the JV County Championships and took 1 1/2 minutes off her previous 5K time. This was in a torrential downpour and quite muddy conditions. I told her to put the longest spikes she could find in her shoes (1/2 inch beauties!) and go have fun. This was exactly my experience in my first ever race for PSU in Pittsburgh's Schenley Park in 1977. I was happy to see the similar results both of us had, with our best ever XC race in otherwise difficult conditions. She hopes to wear the PSU uniform in XC at Penn State Mont Alto next Fall. Nothing could make me prouder.
Next, Mark Haywood deserves some accolades for bringing the first ever team title to Camp Hill at the same District III meet. He helped coach the team to the victory in the Class A team competition. Way to go Mark!
