Parents, we are asking for assistance throughout the season. We are looking for parents willing to organize and/or to bring refreshments (food, water and gatorade) to all away meets this season. Some of the meets further away (Peoria/East Peoria) usually have food delivered to the courses (subs or pizza). If you think you can help, please contact Coach Patrylak or Lisa Thompson.
We are also looking for parent volunteers to assist at all home meets this year. This includes Wednesday, September 10 and Saturday, September 20 this year. Please check the schedule for other home meets for EHS, Liberty and Lincoln. Thank you for your help and dedication.

State Meet Comments from Coach P. Congratulations All-State Four by Eight!
Well we had to survive a three and 1/2 hour rain delay, move field events indoors, and experience another round of this insane weather, but we did it with flare! Here are my notes for our state qualifiers:
Josh Lawson: Pole Vault: Result: No Height.
--Josh, of all the people affected by the weather, you were affected the most. With a 12:00 p.m. weigh in, you were not able to jump until 6:30. The third flight got hit hard. I was impressed with you ability to stay focused. I'm proud of you effort throughout the season and very happy with the way you vaulted. You benefited from being here this weekend. This summer you will get to work with a pole vault coach (and hopefully a distance coach) and finally get the help and coaching I wish I could have provided. I know that my limitations limited your vaulting. With your attitude and dedication, I think you will experience a lot of success with the proper coaching. Keep your head up, unless you are practicing getting inverted! You'll be back with a purpose next year.
3200 Relay: Prelims: 8:00.09. Finals: 7:55.36: Result: 7th Place
--It is amazing how things seemed to work. In some ways we lucked out qualifying this season, but even getting here was a question until the final weeks of the season. Honestly, this was the event that I was most excited about. I thought it would start off with a trophy at the prep top times meet and go from there, but we were slow to develop. I felt like a revolving door. It took a while to get things in place, but the puzzle finally worked (I'll give thanks for that in a minute).
--Tyler Cann: Alternate. I know you felt like I was being nice bringing you, but you have shown me a lot this year. I wish they gave more than four medals, because you deserve one. Why? Let's put it this way: Think about kids and their parents. For some situations or conversations, you would always want you mom. Mothers can provide certain levels of comfort we all need. For some things you would prefer to have you father present (it would be gross to talk to mom about that ). See, as a coach there is only so much that I can do or say. Sometimes an athlete does not need a coach to try to motivate, encourage, or build back up. Sometimes people need a good friend. You, Tyler, were a great friend this weekend to your teammates. You were able to provide the extra support and help that they needed. You were a major part of this team. Also, Tyler deserves all of the credit for our relay order. By accident, Tyler led me to an All-State order. See Tyler, coaches can learn things, too.
--Daniel Mazar: Prelims: 2:03.2. Finals: 2:02.2. Daniel, I know that you are not happy with your times, but you have no idea how much you impressed you teammates and coaches. First off, you were the only AA Freshman Distance Runner to bring home an All-State Medal this season. That, in itself, should say enough. The fact that you finished both races even says more. A trip/stumble in prelims so early in a race can lead even the most gifted seniors to fall off the face of the earth. You kept us in contention with your guts. Double back to finals where you again get spiked/tripped and you kept us in the race again. That poise will help lead you to more great things. Also, running 16 seconds faster in the 800 between your 8th and 9th grade years is amazing. Great Job.
--Aaron Cole: Prelims: 1:59.3. Finals: 1:57.9. "Operation Cole was a success." That is the comment you left me on my State T-shirt. Yes it was, and not because of the times. See, you asked me what you could do to run faster (you wanted to be a 50.? in the 400). I knew I needed an 800 runner. You asked me what you needed to do. All I said was, "Join cross-country". The success was seeing the friendships and bonds you made, your maturity as an athete, the passion and intensity you brought to the distance program, a passion and intensity it was lacking. That is what made Operation Cole a success. Your 1:57.9 and 50.8 and All-State standing were just icing on the cake and the results of trust in the program, your stubborness and your willingness to reach your goals. This was one heck of a season for your first year of middle distance/distance running. Two things: 1) You are welcome. 2) (and more importantly) Thank you!
--Devon Dudding: Prelims: 2:00.7. Finals: 1:58.4. Devon, we have had great high points and some super low points in our three years. I know that things can get rough and with injuries comes a fear of more injuries and a loss of passion for running. I think you have been to that point too many times in your short career. I can honestly say that I may be most happy for you with this medal. You were so close so many times in middle school and I always felt like I could help you get over the hump. We have been close, but always seem to fall short. I was proud to see you gain some of that fire and passion back as the season progressed. I loved seeing you put it on the line and try to fight! I hope that this State Meet has rekindled the fire and helped destroy the demons! Congraulations.
--Eli Sweatt: Prelims: 1:56.7. Finals: 1:56.6. Two things stick out in my mind: Valerie Eli needs chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast before every meet the rest of his life and 1:58.04. Why 1:58.04? Because that makes your 1:56.7 in prelims so impressive. See, Eli came up so big for us in prelims, that only three runners in the open 800 run prelims actually ran faster than you! That's right, your time would have put you fourth going into finals, where 1:58.04 was the last qualifying time. Then, the next day, you were caught with 300 to go. I did not know which Eli we had, the unsure one or the fast one. You should incredible poise when you felt the pressure and started to move. When 10th place caught you with 300 to go, not only did you hold them off, but your kicked picked up two more places in the final 200 meters and a 7th place finish as a team. You looked great and battled. You competed. Guess what, the only Sweatt that shows up as All-State in the IHSA is someone by the name of ELI Sweatt. Congratulations on a great year. You showed a lot of growth and maturity throughout the season and have established yourself as one of the better 800 runners in the State. Congratulations.
I'm very proud of everyone. The medals are nice, but always remember your teammates and feelings. Remember the look of the track, the noise of the crowd, and the faces and embraces of track family and teammates! You all deserve it! Thank you for another memorable track season and state meet. Who would have thought three months ago that the combination of Daniel Mazar, Aaron Cole, Devon Dudding, and Eli Sweatt would equal All-State. Thank you and congratulations!

Southwestern Illinois Relays: Special Thanks!
Sue Mueller and Larry Thompson spent a chilly day in Belleville volunteering as timers at the SW Illinois Relays. Photos/TomAtwoodThe 2008 Southwestern Illinois Relays were a success thanks to all of the help given to the EHS Coaching Staff. We would like to take a moment and give some special thank yous:
Coach Austrakus and the SIUE Track and Field Staff. Thank you for taking care of entries and seeding the event. We appreciate all of the help you gave us and look forward to hosting the event at the updated SIUE facility next year.
Coach Seagraves and Belleville West. Belleville West has one of the best facilities in the conference. We greatly appreciate Coach Seagraves and the Administration at Belleville West for allowing us to host the event at their facility. Thank you for your help and your dedication to track and field.
Mr. and Mrs. Bevis and Katie. It is always great to get help for such a supportive family. Mr. Bevis assisted throughout the event, starting with some Athletic Director type duties and turning into meet managment and scoring duties. Special thanks to Lynn for not only giving her husband up for the day but also for assisting him with scoring. Katie, thanks for your help as well. We owe you! Just remind us and we will try to help out with a future Liberty event!
EHS Athletes. We appreciate all of the help from members of the EHS Track and Field Teams during the day. Field Events went off well and quickly thanks to all of the extra help. Especially on such a cold day, your efforts did not go unnoticed. Thank you.
Travis Dudley, Willie Sweatt, Charlie Vance, Dustin Davis, and Garrett Sweatt. We are fortunate to have such great alumni (and one pumped up 8th grader) that, not only come out in 40 degree temperatures to cheer on their former school, but also volunteer to assist with the pole vault, timing, taking splits, and running results to the press box. Thank you for your continued support to the program. It is always a pleasure to see you guys!
Mrs. Coley. We just finished our fourth meet, and you have helped out with almost all of them. Besides having the third place finisher in the pole vault as a daughter, she also has a love for our sport. Mrs. Coley worked through the cold temperatures to make sure the coaches had a knowledgable worker assisting them. Thank you for your time and help.
Tom Atwood: For taking countless picutres of the event. We look forward to seeing them posted throughout the season. Just make sure you take more caution when taking pictures of the coaching staff. Either that, or photoshop/edit our pictures before posting them.
Ms. Mueller and Mr. Thompson. Thank you so much for all of your help. Ms. Mueller and Mr. Thompson were outside from 10:45 until after 3:30 working the finish line, timing third and fourth places and keeping things running smoothly at the line. Being with them all day, I know how cold it was and how hard they worked. Thank you very much for all of your help. It's good to see other people crazy enough to spend an entire day outside at a track meet that are not coaches. We appreciate your help.
All Officials, Coaches and teams: Thank you for making this a successful event. We appreciate all of the help throughout the day. Thank you to Mr. Huwer, Mr. Skirball and Mr. Stallhut for their wonderful work today in keeping the meet flowing. You gentlemen did a great job! Coaches, thank you for your patience and help with the field events and timing. The meet was a success because of your help. Also, thank you to all teams for your sportsmanship, performances, and camp clean up. We hope you enjoyed the meet as much as we enjoyed putting it on.
Congratulations to all teams and coaches and good luck during the remainder of the 2008 Track and Field Season.
