congrats cristan

(and a shout out to bmat for a USATF Jr. qualifer)

thanks to all who worked the meet, you all were outstanding!

Last, certainly not least, we appreciate all of you who have worked so hard over the last few months. Though your season has come to a close, some of our group continue on in part due to the daily climate of focused effort that all of you have contributed to.

I honestly believe every day we work hard, we close the gap on those ahead of us and separate ourselves from those behind.
