Great season everybody. While I am personally disappointed in how the season transpired for my own team- we had allowed our talent to grow thin, and we were unable to utilize the offseason last spring to draw more athletes onto our team. But still I remain grateful that we even had a season, and that our kids even had the opportunity to compete. We would be in far worse shape, if we had not been given that much.
I am not getting my hopes up for Indoor Track Season. But I do pray that we will be granted an outdoor track season. I think Coventry was robbed of what could have been by far the most successful season in school history. We brought back a state qualifying hurdler, and a state qualifying long jumper from 2019, both of whom were capable of taking first in 2020. Coventry could have gotten to 20 points, which likely puts us in top 5 in the state. But alas, it was stolen from us. And now we must spend this spring rebuilding-a tall task, and it would be much taller should the 2021 season also be taken from us. Not that I doubt we can rebuild. Daniel Savage has coached at Coventry since 2012. He has taken Coventry from the basement to near the top over a span of 8 seasons. If he did it once, he can do it again.
