SPREADING HER EAGLES WINGS!

          She has been an Eagle since the age of three (3)!  There are very few Events for Athletes of that age, so she contested the 100m, 200m, and Long Jump.  When she turned four (4) years old, she picked up Javelin (Turbo Javelin for Youth).  Once she reached the ripe […]

PRACTICE HARD, PLAY HARD! 😊

          During the Track & Field Season there are LOTS of Practices!  If it is spoken once, it is spoken 100 times, “Perfect Practice Makes Perfect”!  Well, there are also times when it is important to PLAY, and the Country Mills Eagles Athletes can PLAY HARD!  So with a day when […]

The ROAD to GREENSBORO Continues…

          The setting was New Haven, CT, home to Yale University, with more than 1,500 Athletes from CT to ME to NY to PA, and every state under that umbrella.  It was three (3) LOOOOOOOONG Days of 90 degree HEAT, a Schedule of Events that, FOREVER, ran hours late, with NO […]
