Fall Sports Awards Night

Parents

A letter was sent out Monday regarding our team sports awards night.  Apparently something happened and none of the letters made it home.  Please see this last minute info about our special end of the year evening. 


Dear Cross Country Parents:

11/8/2019

We have come to the end of another successful cross country season.  I would like to invite you all to celebrate your sons’ and daughters’ team at our year end award ceremony to be held on Thursday, 11/14/19.

All sports will meet in the Theater at 6:00 PM for department wide awards.  Then, once that is done, we will move to the cafeteria for our team potluck and team awards. Since the dinner is a pot luck, I’m asking each family to bring something to the event.

Use the first letter of your last name to determine what you should bring to the banquet.

  • A-C, Drinks (2x2 liters or 1 gallon)
  • D-H, Salad (Green, Potato, Pasta, etc…)
  • I-M, Dessert
  • N-Z, Main Dish, (enough to feed your family and at least 4 other people)

Athletes: You need to return your uniforms before the banquet.  If you have not turned them in by the time of the banquet, you will not receive your letter or patch. You may bring your uniforms on the night of the banquet.  If you are still competing, this does not apply to you.

It has been a great season for Hughson Cross Country.  We always seem to have highs and lows. This year was challenging in many ways and we definitely had both highs and lows again.  However, this group of kids is so positive that their good attitudes outweighed any difficulties we had. I hope you will join us to celebrate our season.

Again, I apologize for the late notice, I'm not exactly sure why none of these letters made it home. 

Sac Joaquin Section Championships

This Saturday is the SJS cross country championship meet.  We've qualified teams in 6 of the 7 divisions running this weekend: Varsity Girls, Varsity Boys, Frosh Soph Girls, Freshman Boys, Sophomore Boys and JV Boys. Our top 7 athletes from each one of those groups are entered into the meet for this Saturday. I'd like to share a brief itinerary:


  • 9:15 AM - Meet at HHS back parking lot
  • 9:30 AM - Bus Departs for Folsom High School
  • 11:30 AM - Arrive in Folsom
  • Races Proceed throughout the afternoon according to the schedule listed in the meet format.
  • 4:00 PM - Awards Ceremony in Folsom High School Ampitheater
  • 5:00 PM - Dinner (there is a shopping center across from the high school)
  • 5:45 PM - Bus Departs from Folsom
  • 7:45 PM - Arrive at HHS, tired but satisfied.

In the varsity races, qualifications for the State Championship will be on the line.  In the varsity girls race, the top 2 teams will qualify for state.  Our girls have made it 3 of the last 4 years and are currently seeded 3rd for Saturday.  In the boys race, 3 teams from our section will qualify for the state meet.  Our boys last made state in 2011, and are seeded 4th going into the meet.  

Our frehsman boys and our sophomore boys are both the top seeds going into their respective races.  As a matter of fact, our Freshman boys are the #3 group out of all divisions heading into this Saturday's meet.

Hope you all can make it there.  Folsom High School map
