Philosophy
2017 Season
The only way for our team to get better is for you to get better. Our philosophy as coaches is simple. We are here because we love the sport of track and field, and we love helping kids improve their physical and mental strengths. We expect you to strive for your best at every moment. In meets, there are three ways for you to be successful: 1) Win your event. 2) Beat your goal for the meet. 3) Beat your personal record.
Success will depend on you. Hard work in practice, goal setting, and faith will be the cornerstones of our success as a team. Everyone is welcome to compete on the track and field team at LTHS, and we will try to match athletes’ events with their area of interest. However, due to reasons of safety, team discipline, and competitiveness, the coaching staff will have the final say in which events athletes practice for and compete in, as well as training methods, groups, and schedules. We compete to win and will not apologize for striving to be a champion. Our ultimate competitive goal isto produce state champions. Yet, we’ll ultimately judge our personal performances on how well we prepared, executed, and competed in our events.
