We made it!!! Summer is just around the corner and that means it’s time for swimming pools and basketball. We can’t help you with the swimming but the Lady Irish will be hosting our youth basketball camp June 21-23 for girls entering grades 3-8 (flyer is attached).🍀🏀

Impressive season for this freshman. Not exactly the results he was hoping for but a learning experience for the future. Leaving with a 17:58 and a fire in his belly for next year.🍀👟

RACE DAY!!! State XC and Runner’s Village is full of anticipation and excitement with a few nerves thrown in. Let’s go, Quinn Lowe!!!🍀👟

A little pre-race activity cheering on Mizzou basketball.🍀👟

Tent City and the spectacle that is State XC. If you can’t get up for this, you’re dead inside. Quinn and the “managers” (band name?) getting in some course time.🍀👟

RACE DAY!!! The Irish competed in Class 3 Districts in Platte City. Four PRs were set including senior Dylan Hamm in the last race of his career. But the story of the day is freshman Quinn Lowe finishing 5th (17:47) to qualify for state next weekend. Proud to be their coach.🍀👟

Irish XC travelled down to Platte City to give the district course a little look see. It is in great shape and ready to go for Saturday. And as tradition demands, dinner at Minsky’s and catch a movie afterwards. Great bunch of kids.🍀👟

[Brad Spinner @CoachSpinnerLHS]

So this guy (Quinn Lowe aka Quinny Bear) is the third fastest human in the Midland Empire Conference. Not too bad for a freshman.🍀👟

[Brad Spinner @CoachSpinnerLHS]

RACE DAY!!! The Irish wind up the regular season at St. Pius for the MEC championships and conference bragging rights. Bragging rights are fun.🍀👟

[Brad Spinner @CoachSpinnerLHS]

Check this out. All five boys medaled at Kearney (a first for me) and we finished 7th as a team in the biggest meet of the year. Plus, Avery dipped her toe into the varsity waters. Getting to that time of year where you start seriously thinking about districts.🍀👟

[Brad Spinner @CoachSpinnerLHS]

RACE DAY!!! Nothing like greeting the first frost as the sun comes up. Beautiful morning for a run as the Irish head to Kearney. Sun coming up, times coming down.🍀👟

[Brad Spinner @CoachSpinnerLHS]

RACE DAY!!! Boys day out as the Irish head out to Excelsior Springs with just the guys. Run like someone is chasing you.🍀👟
