Thank you to all who attending the banquet this weekend. It was a wonderful evening of celebrating the success we had as a team in 2017. Together with both our adult and youth programs, we achieved a world championship title, a team national title, 7 individual national championship titles, 3 Kona slots, and countless personal records. More importantly, we guided tons of athletes to their first finish line and hopefully taught each of you that you are capable of more than you thought possible. Also, together we raised tremendous funds for worthy causes such as the VA Home for Boys & Girls, United Athletics, The Speak Up Foundation, and others. 2017 was a great year.
