EAGLES are MADE to SOAR!

Constitution Classic
Marissa Fiacco

An Eagle learns to soar by using Thermal Currents of air.  These warm air patterns are created by the surrounding terrain.  Eagles will spread their Wings, and their Tail Feathers, allowing the wind to carry them to new heights.  Soaring saves an Eagle energy, because it does not have to flap its Wings as often.

It was certainly Warm at the Constitution Classic, and the Terrain was a Track & Field Facility built for Performance.  On this day, the Eagles soared to 1^st Place in the Liberty Tour Team Standings with Great Performances by many Athletes.  In addition to taking 1^st Place in the Girls (15-16) Long Jump, Marissa Fiacco (Pictured Above) set a new Country Mills Eagles Record (4.53m) in that Event by toppling Meredith Cully’s previous Record of 4.28m set back in 2006.

Patriots Invitational

Arianna Mills fulfilled every bit of the word “Soaring” when she flew into the Record Books in the Girl’s High Jump (11-12) clearing 1.30m, surpassing the previous Record of 1.25m set by Shannon Lenzi back in 2006.  Arianna also set a Constitution Classic Record in the Turbo Javelin with a toss of 22.25m.
