107 10:51 5:29.30 1:49.29 7-2 I have coached 11 years now at Dakota Ridge High School and this season may be the most memorable for its incredible stress and challenges I never thought I would ever face. This week in particular was something I won't soon forget and will be processing for weeks and maybe years to come. We will see. I want to talk about a few performances this week that really stood out. Context is everything with me and these performances were full of context. 1:49.29 Let me begin with a redemptive race that was a year in the making. Last season, in the rain, we had a horrible drop of the baton in the league championship Sprint Medley. The year prior was a disaster as well. Putting all that aside, Carina Wilkerson, Genny Cruz, Olivia Landers and Cayli Hume put together a school record  800 Sprint Medley in 1:49.29 and it will give some seniors a chance to end their careers on the Jeffco track...during the state championship. 5:29.30 Monday at Val
