The schedule for the rest of break is below. A few comments:
1) For days we are skiing at Como, please go directly to the golf course unless you need to pick up skis at school. This will minimize the need for extra drivers on those days. On those days, practice will begin around 9:15 and end around 11:00, so no need to be there right at 9:00. Just be ready to go at 9:15.
2) For days we are skiing elsewhere, we will need parent drivers. Battle Creek on Tuesday, Dec. 30 and Baker Park on Saturday, Jan. 3 are the biggest priorities. Battle Creek is the site of our Section meet, and Baker Park is the site of our Conference meet. Varsity skiers should attend those practices if at all possible.
3) Check the web site for updates
4) Please pass the word along to teammates! I don't have email addresses for a few team members, including Mable, Ryan, Bee, Xiong Mee, Josie, Gerson, Yara, and Dou.
Parents: please contact me if you are able to drive, and let me know how many skiers your vehicle can hold.

SKI CAMP DEPARTURE DELAYED!!!
From Coach Lageson...
Holiday Camp tomorrow.
Due to the likely weather conditions and roads, we are delaying our
departure to 9:00 am tomorrow. There may be further delays. Stay tuned.
This will give us time to assess the weather and road conditions before
starting out. I will talk to the Bus company at 7:30 to get their
professional opinion on whether we should delay further.
Other Holiday stuff.
Remember to bring a good lunch and full water bottle. Travel time is likely
to be longer due to the weather conditions.
Speaking of weather. The forecast is for cold and windy conditions at least
for the first two days of Holiday Camp. Make sure that you have enough warm
clothes. Remember that when you ski in cold weather, your clothing will be
wet when you come inside. You will need dry clothes to change into and
another set for the second workout. 2 sets of ski clothes, and warm clothes
for inside the cabin and playing outside.
Clothing List cold weather
Ski Clothes
Warm top and Bottom, layers work well. (Long underwear under tights with
wind layer at a minimum)
Snow boots
Neck Scarfs, Extra Hats, Mittens with wind layer, no gloves!!
Warm clothes for inside too.
Towel (Rainbow does not provide towels)
Extra Hangers (for drying stuff out)
Hand Warmers, Toe Warmers (Chemical heat packs available many places. REI,
Midwest, )
Water Bottle, Training food.

Monday Practice Plan
Como Park skiers should report to Mr. Leonard's room after school for practice. We will not be busing to the golf course.
This change is due to the forecasted low temperatures and high winds, plus questionable snow conditions.
Please bring any skis that need to be waxed, as well as indoor workout clothes for use in the weight room. Depending on how cold and windy it is, we may have a short session of skiing out on the soccer fields. However, our top priorities for practice will be waxing and working out indoors.

Como Park Skiers Race at Hoigaards Relays
The Como Park Nordic ski team opened its season this morning at the Hoigaards Breadsmith Relays. In strong, cold winds and on an unfamiliar course, the 15 Como Park skiers competed very well. The race consisted of 4 legs of 3 kilometers each. Teams of 2, 3, or 4 members were permitted to compete. Many of the top schools in the metro area turned out to race.
A number of skiers did two legs, including Emma Lee and Leah Roth, who comprised a two-person team that took 8th place in the high school girls division. Rachel Lee, Matt Buechler, and Luke Rustad also skied two legs. The boys team of Rustad, Phil Kramer, and Jon Tetlie placed 8th in the high school boys division.
All-in-all it was a promising start to the season. The team has many strong veterans, as well as an up-and-coming group of underclassmen who will challenge their elders and provide great depth to the team.
Check out the second photo set HERE for photos of many of the athletes who skied. Team results will be posted there as well.

Excellent Conference Meet for Cougars
Boys 2nd; Girls 3rd
The Como Park XC teams performed exceptionally well at the St. Paul City Conference meet on Tuesday.
The girls team rebounded from mid-season setbacks to run strong for a 3rd place finish in the team competition, matching last year's result. Leah Roth secured All-Conference status for the second year in a row, while Jane Kramer and Rachel Lee earned honorable mention All-Conference honors.
On the boys side, Central captured 6 of the top 10 places, leaving Como and Highland to battle for second place. Big PRs by senior Evan Vogel (17:20) and Nate Rue (18:11) earned both All-Conference honors and helped secure a win over Highland. The 2nd place finish ties the best finish at Conference in school history. The 1981 boys team also took second.
Rue's time marks the fastest run by a Como freshman in recent history. Solid runs by senior Luke Rustad and sophomore Evan Hanson earned them honorable mention All-Conference honors.
The JV boys were led by strong finishes from Maurice Martinez, Henry Cole, Lia Yang, and Richard Konkol.
Lee defends individual title.
Senior Emma Lee toed the line for the first time since injury sidelined her over a month ago. She successfully returned to action, not only claiming All-Conference honors, but also defending her conference title. She clocked a speedy 15:39, the fastest time run at the Conference Meet since 2002.
Anderson sets school record.
Senior Ross Anderson battled hard to capture 5th place and All-Conference honors. The competition spurred him under Roberto Caballero's school record of 17:02 and under the 17 minute mark. His 16:57 run was an 8 second PR.
Congratulations to the whole team on a great meet!

Arlington Invite on Tuesday
This week's meet is the Arlington Invite, which takes place on the rugged trails behind Arlington High School. We will run over to check out the course for practice on Monday. Teams participating in the meet will be Como Park, Arlington, Johnson, and Humboldt. New this year...trophies to the top 5 individuals.
From Arlington coach Diana Morton:
"We're looking forward to seeing you this Tuesday at Arlington. A couple of reminders:
The course is about 2.5 miles. Boys and girls run the same course.
Varsity and JV run together.
It's pretty rugged. Please remind runner to be careful.
The course will be clearly marked with spray paint, cones and/or flags.
Someone will be on hand to read the mile splits.
Trophies will be awarded for individual 1st through 5th place at the end of the meet.
Girls race at 3:30 pm.
Note: The schedule says Boys at 4:30 pm, but I think we could have them go right after the girls finish about 4:00 pm unless anyone has objections."

Irish Invitational Results
Friday, August 29
The Como Park boys and girls XC teams traveled to Rosemount this morning for the Irish Invitational.
The girls race featured 5 of the top 7 ranked teams in the state AA rankings. The Como girls took 17th out of 21 teams, a strong improvement from last season.
The Cougars were led by Emma Lee, who moved up strongly over the second mile, to come within 15 seconds of the top runner with her 12:18 finish. Veterans Leah Roth, Jane Kramer, and Sarah Davy all improved on past performances, and newcomer Alisha Wilber made her mark as the team's #3 runner in her first meet.
The boys placed 17th out of 19 teams, also an improvement over last year, despite missing a pair of varsity senior runners. Senior Ross Anderson led the way with a time of 11:00, followed by super-frosh Nate Rue, who clocked an 11:48 in just his second cross country meet. Junior Richard Konkol stepped up big time, moving from the #9 on the team last week to #5 today.
Two years ago, Como Park came to this meet and did not even run anyone in the girls varsity race. We have come a long way! Congratulations Cougars, and keep up the hard work.
