Another week, a few more rhymes,
A wonderful week making memories and good times…
This weeks Flyin’ the P winners are especially great
As they all qualified for IHSA State!
In the land of runners, where the cross country wind blows,
Devon Hayes blazes trails, faster than it ever goes.
Incredible Dragon Speed, a legend in the making,
Under 15 minutes for the first time since 2006, talk about record breaking
Morgan Coker joins the race, a youthful stride,
Cross country dreams, with each step, she represented us with Pride
Through fields and hills, in the IHSA State's embrace,
Freshman fire, in this challenging space.
But wait, in the pool, another tale unfolds,
Izzy Kula dives in, as the swim story molds.
A freshman fish, in waters wide and free,
The 200 Freestyle, where Izzy claims her glee.
IHSA State Finals, these three were in the land of the best
Embracing the challenges as they tackled their test…
We are so grateful for the way they represented the School-a
So please give it up for Devon Hayes, Morgan Coker, and Izzy Kula
Fly the P with Pride, and let us give you a cheer,
We can’t wait to see what you all do next year!
Devon Hayes - Cross Country
Morgan Coker - Cross Country
Izzy Kula - 200 Freestyle
