Boy's Cross-Fit Challenge:
Saturday 17 January was our first cross-fit challenge at Merritt Island CrossFit
Attending and competing were:
Weston Ott
Reid Elkins
Ethan Bennett
Ethan Hess
Jarod Gannon
Josh Ordonez
Bryce Galeano
Shane O'Neil
Coach Barry Elkins
The winner of the First cross fit challenge was Weston Ott. Second and third places went to Ethan Bennett and Reid. Way to go boys!!
All those attending who gave up their Saturday morning have my gratitude and respect.
For those that did not show up to participate or cheer them on must have had good excuses not being there. You missed a good time.
I saw the hard work that those who have attended the Merritt Island CrossFit and the Primordial Box have done. The results are fantastic. You are stronger, have more body mass and have more stamina.
You accomplished a lot. All told, about 25 out our 50 going out for the team took the time to work at a Cross Fit program.
I can see the difference at conditioning. Those who told me that they rather not do the cross fit and work on their own were gassed at conditioning and trailed in many of the drills.
Cross Fit and our early conditioning program has shown me we have a team made up of boys who are driven to succeed.
I hope the numbers grow each year and we partner with these two local companies to help all of us get better.
Way to go Mustangs!!!

Lacrosse is the Fastest Growing Sport in the USA
The Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association (SGMA) conducted an in-depth study last year and found that lacrosse was the fastest-growing sport. Over the last 10 years, according to the study, "participation is up 218.1 percent." Unlike football, lacrosse is popular among men and women alike. The sport saw explosive growth between 2001 and 2010. According to U.S. Lacrosse, the number of players had tripled by the end of the decade.
