Scouting Report: Hoover HS Girls & Boys

You return a top 5 with a team average of 19:38 (16:55 boys) this year.  How does the team look after summer practices so far?
Most of the team has been training consistently from what I’m told/seen.  We do not have organized mandatory practices in the summer.  Athletes meet on their own each weekday morning, so I have not seen a lot of them this summer.  We will begin practices next week.
 
Any new additions to the team or surprises we can expect?
No new additions that I know of at this time.
 
What is your schedule this season and are you changing anything up?
Our schedule is similar to last year except that our big trip is heading to The Manhattan Invite in NYC in October.  (We are on a 4 year rotating schedule and it is NYC’s turn).  Schedule attached.
 
What goals has your team established for this season?
Our goal is always to be competing for the state championship.  Not sure if that is feasible this year or not.  We have some young talent that will have to step up their game to be competitive at that level.
