Pedro Marquez Quotations

That puts her in a position to compete. That's a two-foot PR for her from last year and puts her in the top four throwers in the league.

Our relay team did well. We just need to work on passing the baton, but that's something that we can work on and improve on. Also, not looking back while we're running will help out.

That was her first time running the 100 hurdles and she did OK. I think she's conquered her fear of the hurdles and I think those times will come down.

That was great to see him throw 95-10 (in the discus. There is a lot of potential there with him being just a freshman. He's a little guy, but he's working on his technique and that's really helping him. He's one of the kids that is just following Kevin around and doing the extra stuff.

That was three freshmen and a sophomore. Zach showed a lot of speed in his 100 leg of the relay, so he looks like he'll be a good competitor in the 100 for us, and could be competing for a top three spot in the long jump.

I think we did pretty well in that we came out and performed well.

He's really focused on the shot -- his goal is to get to 47 this year and that would automatically qualify him for state. He has the potential to get to 45 -- 47 might be a stretch, but if he keeps working he can get there. He hasn't really practiced the discus much because his focus has been on the shot.

This year she came out and challenged herself to be a distance runner. We're trying to get her down to six minutes (in the 1,500). I think with her work ethic, she can do it.

I'm pretty sure (Burton) would have caught the guy if he hadn't turned his head. It's a pretty good time and we're going to see if we can get him down around 11.5.

She's had a lot of time off and she's practicing a lot harder right now, but she was a little rusty. She'll continue to improve as time goes on. She definitely scored some needed points for us.
