Hilliard Heritage

Good evening everyone!

First, before I get to the meet line-up and directions to our meet tomorrow at Hilliard Heritage, I wanted to share something special that has occurred at the Pickerington Invitational. Jada Sleet, a 7th grade sprinter and long jumper, broke a 14 year old Worthingway school record with a jump of 15 feet, 3-3/4 inches. This jump eclipses the previous record by nearly 8 inches (7.75"). Congratulations to Jada - with extra hard work and effort who knows what's next!

Next, I wanted to mention that we have an URGENT need for volunteers at the meet tomorrow!! The meet will take longer if we don't have volunteers - if you're planning on attending the meet there is no better vantage point to see the races than the finish line, no better place to watch the field events then right up close to the event helping out. If you are able to volunteer, just find a member of the coaching staff and let them know you're there to help. If you have a preference, share that with the coach and we will do our best to accommodate you!

Lastly before I get to the line-up, I wanted to apologize for the snails pace at which the spirit wear is being delivered. I have been assured that the high school track booster group is doing everything they can to "light a fire" with the folks producing the t-shirts. Annnnd...I wanted to remind everyone to mark their calendars for May 5th - it is the Worthington Invitational held at TWHS - a required event for ALL track athletes. We also need many parent volunteers to help keep this meet running smoothly. Thank you!

Now, onto the meet line-up. It is listed below:


Directions to Hilliard Heritage are below:
Estimated travel time - just under 30 minutes.
* Take 270 W toward Dublin, get off at the Cemetery Road exit.
* Turn RIGHT onto Cemetery Road.
* About 2 miles down on Cemetery you'll stay right at the traffic circle.
* First RIGHT is Hilliard Station School, you can park in their parking lot or the next RIGHT which is Hilliard Heritage (or Memorial - the schools are right next to each other). Park in either lot. The track facility is in the rear of the school - there are two tracks adjacent to each other - not sure which we will be running on.
