LPAC vs Montevideo, Morning Practice Starts & Sweet Tomatoes Fundraiser too . . .
LPAC Wins over Almaden Gators ~ 131.8 to 114.0
It was a great effort as the LPAC team members showed improved times 77% of the time. All of these improvement points actually add to our overall score and helped us solidify the win. We want to keep that going, so be sure to take the time and come to morning practice. We know it can be a challenge sometimes for the teenagers to rise and shine for their 6:45 AM practice, but keep in mind, practice will makes us all stronger and yes even faster.
