Otter Chaos

This edition of ALTF shall be


Why?  Because I have very little to write about, but I feel like posting something.  I guess I could talk about school, but it is so mundane... I enjoy WSU quite a bit, and I love my major, but the downside is that I haven't had homework very often, so when I have been assigned some, I haven't been very motivated to finish it.  Ah well.

I think a better use of this blog would be posting memes... why?  Because I can.  I think I know what you're thinking.


To which I respond:

And by now, you're probably thinking:


Okay, okay.  I'll get back on topic.  Cross country season has begun!

I attended last weekend's JK Gold Classic at the RAFT near Augusta.  The high school meet wasn't as competitive as it has been in past years, but I did see two things especially worth mentioning: 

Maize South girls kicked some butt.  I think they might be the 4A favorites this year, assuming they stay classified as such (5A isn't much of a stretch).  It's really hard to tell how good the other teams in 4A are until Wamego (next weekend) and Rim Rock, but they ran as a very solid pack, and could easily improve throughout the season.

Wichita Trinity girls surprised me with their second place finish.  I think that they could be a potential surprise team, possibly even (dare I say it?) a state qualifier.  Again, it is early.  It's hard to say how much they'll improve throughout the season, or what kind of injuries may occur, or what other teams in their region might be good. 

Wichita North boys ran well, but I don't think they look quite as strong as they did last season.  Although, like I said, it is very early in the season.

I want to give a shout-out to Wichita State University, who performed very well.  I also want to thank Casey Nightengale, whose hairstyle and beard allowed me the opportunity to utilize this meme:


I'm hoping to watch a few more meets in person this year, so maybe there will be more substance to the ol' blog this year.  I don't have a lot more to talk about, really, umm...


And on that note, I bid thee farewell.
