Their coach Mrs. Thompson ' s outlook on her team was superb, Although we lost our first meet the loss was to last years league champs La Jolla . The team improved over the summer and it ' s members started breaking school records at the first meet. The girls could compete in a maximum of four events. The distance runners usually ran one to two events, while the sprinters competed in the full four. We ' re strong and we ' re good! , commented sprinter Nikki Weaver.
