In an incredible turn of events, our new Phys.Ed. teacher, Mr. Wilson, had his competitive fires lit with Kevin's performance. With garbage can in tow in case things went south, Mr. Wilson prepared and pulled another incredible 500m in 1:24.3!!!!!!! Wow, I don't know what these people are eating around here, but we could be on the verge of something big. Way to go CASS!!!
500m record for students: Kevin Jones - 1:24.8
500m record for staff: Mr. Wilson - 1:24.3
Just recently CASS athletics has added to their weightroom with some new equipment. New bars, new weights, a new GHD, new chin up bars and probably what is the most popular addition....a new C2 Rower. For those of you new to the fitness world, the C2 Rower is a standardized rower that is used around the world........and the most incredible part of this story...Kevin Jones, a Husky basketball player, on his third attempt ever.... rowed 500m in an incredible 1:24.8!!!!!! Adding to this accomplishment is that on an online training site that tracks the progress of rowers worldwide, Kevin's performance ranks 77th!!! Way to go CASS!!!!
In his first ever Angie attempt ( 100 pull-ups, 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats for time), Zach Reid pulled of 100 pull-ups in 3:32 and then continued to finish the workout in an incredible 16:19s!!!!! Watch out for big things from this kid!!!! Congratulations Zach!
The CASS Huskies Hockey team played a solid defensive battle yesterday versus the St. Mary’s Knights in their 2-0 victory. Ethan Orr, who promised his first goal of the season would be against St. Mary’s, stood by his word and scored the game winning goal 4 minutes into the third. Steve Lajambe added an insurance marker 4 minutes later and the boys hung on for the victory. Graeme Caughill stood on his head stopping all 24 shots he faced and earning his first shutout as a Husky. Congratulations on a huge victory boys!
CASS had a great day today with 17 students competing at the Korah Invitational wrestling tournament. Everyone had a great day and put in courageous efforts and wrestled with the brakes off (as Mr. Fryia would say). The most impressive thing about the day was that even though everyone wrestled their hearts out and were proud of themselves, they're fired up more than ever to improve. Personally, I think they've gotten a taste of how good they can be....and they want more. Gold medal performances were put in by Zack Reid, Eliza Scheuermann, Nichole Kinzel, Emma Horner, Spencer McLeod, and Matti Kirkiniemi. Trevor Linley brought home the silver, while George Wabigwan and Logan McKinnon each captured a bronze. Congratulations team! I can't wait to see who gets fired up for practice on Monday!
