Jash During high jump |

Jash Finished 3rd in the 400m dash |
Five D20 middle schools participated in this tournament: Discovery Canyon Campus, Mountain Ridge, Timberlake, Eagleview and Challenger. These teams competed in sprint,hurdles, relays,jumps & throws.
It was a bitterly cold, windy afternoon, but nevertheless, students, teachers,parents, & friends stayed to cheer the athletes. Wrapped up in sweaters, jackets and blankets we endured this harsh weather.
It is amazing how these kids can withstand this temperature and yet still able to run & jump. But what's really nice is that all students from different school came together in a competitive track meet, and yet not one single one of them had any conflict of any sort. In fact I hear so many students complimenting each other how good they jumped or run, or words like " good luck", "that was a good run", "hey what's up?". They sit together, stand together waiting for their turn in each event, they talk to other students from another school, in short the kids was just having fun while playing for their own respective school.
On the background, parents & families cheered their respective kids and school and we were like paparazzis taking pictures & videos non-stop, I was one of them.
