Coach Ed Schneider was pleased with this weekend's performance. That is the process we are in right now. The team used its practices to work toward having the best overall lineup for the conference meet. Because the events change for each athlete every meet, the practice schedule varies. The athletes have a diverse practice schedule depending on what they're concentrating on.
Practices vary in mileage and duration and team members break up and work in crews.
Each group has their own workout. But Schneider points out that the idea of the team is not lost, despite the team not always practicing together. We travel as a team and the team is rooting for one another. The coach also feels this enables them to do well in team competition. How each athlete competes determines the team's accomplishments.
