Coach Notes
We wrapped up our team competitions on Friday with a mini track meet. Each athlete competed in a sprint, a long jump, and a throw. All marks were added up and averaged for each team. We scored each competition and awarded points to each of the teams based on their team's performances. It was a great day to compete and a great way to end. Below are the final team standings from our competition. One team earned themselves and a day off from Mandatory Spring Break practices.
We have a practice meet this week at A&M Consolidated HS. The schedule for that meet is below. The goal for this meet is to compete against someone other than ourselves in a practice type environment. It isn't a full track meet. Look forward to seeing what your athlete is able to do in this type of set-up and get some things cleaned up before we go to our first meet on Saturday Feb 18, 2023 in Leander.

Travel Expectations
- All Meets are Required and Athletes must attend all meets unless told otherwise by a coach.
- Athletes who miss the bus will earn themselves an OFI as well as will travel to the next meet and be a manager only.
- Try to plan Medical appointments around meets.
- If there is a reason an athlete cannot attend a meet, advance notice should be given to the coach.
- Other extracurriculars (band, multi-sport, CSHS organizations) are an exception, and the athlete should discuss these activities with the coach ahead of time.
- We will travel as a team to and from the meet on a school bus. If there is a special circumstance, this needs to be communicated at least 24 hours before the meet and your parents need to see a coach and sign you out. We will not release you to anyone but your parents.
- Appropriate Attire: You will be issued a uniform and required to wear. If you decide to wear something else, you will be asked to change. If you choose not to change, then you will be scratched from the meet and parents will be asked to come pick you up immediately. Non athletic clothes may not be worn at any time.
- Meet behavior: You are representing CSHS when you go to a meet. We are there to compete and cheer on our teammates. If we feel you are not focused enough to run, we reserve the right to scratch you from your events. It is also not a time for you to be wandering around with boys, hiding under blankets with boys, or disappearing with boys. Do not do anything that will embarrass CSHS, the Track and Field team, or yourself. If conduct is deemed to be a distraction you will be scratched from your events and a parent will be called to come pick you up.
- Cellphones: While at the meet, cellphones are not to be your primary entertainment. You need to be cheering teammates on and having fun celebrating with their performances. If a cell phone looks like it is your primary entertainment, you will be asked to put it up. If it continues to be a distraction, then you will be asked to give it to a coach and can get it back at the conclusion of the meet.

Meet Schedule with Changes
Back in December when we had our parent meeting we released a tentative schedule. There have been some changes to that schedule with us being able to get in some meets that we were waiting to hear back from. Please see the changes below as well as download the app (information below as well) to stay up to date on all things Track and Field
Volunteer Opportunities
We are going to be in need of lots of volunteer help this upcoming season. We have created an interest form below that you can complete letting us know where you might be able/willing to help. It is not a commitment form, just an interest form. Please take the time to look over it and see.
New Athletic Website and App
The Cougars have a new Athletic website. This website is very interactive and will be used by all sports and programs to push out Sport Specific Information. It has our Roster, Schedule, and will have Meet Results and Information as well. Please take a chance to favorite it on your computer. Our current meet schedule is posted there and ready for you to look at.
We also have an app. Search College Station Athletics in the App store to download. Once you have downloaded it, you click on CSHS and it will make it a favorite for you. You can then click on any sport and it will make that a favorite for you.
