New Belt

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 05:11:00 +0000

So I'm getting it together with custom engraving and maybe custom metal Poomps the Taco if I can get it done in time...

December is fast approaching.

STING IT WHEN YOU BRING IT!

Poomps The Taco LIVES!

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 07:36:00 +0000

I think a pink unitard, some bunny slippers and yellow shorts are in order, perhaps for Halloween...

Good luck to David Pell...I want to see you in Sacramento!

Great Day of Practice, and SICK Knee Drives

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Wed, 04 Apr 2007 04:14:00 +0000

So today at Kezar Stadium in San Francisco, CA two of my jumpers had great days, learning how to truly get their knee drive up, and building off a proper negative angle , which translated into great rotation.

2007 USATF Club Championship Series to offer $65,000 in prize money

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Sat, 31 Mar 2007 02:45:00 +0000

TSP Athletics...I'll keep you posted here about developments as I try to get us recognized...

Clubs wishing to participate in these events must be registered 2007 USATF member clubs. Additionally, each athlete must be a 2007 USATF member and affiliated with their club as part of their USATF membership. Clubs should contact their local USATF Association to confirm their club's and athletes' eligibility. Association contact information is available on the USATF website at http://www.usatf.org/associations/

As USATF expands the Club Championship Series, it will look to grow the events with enhanced promotional opportunities for sponsors and added support for clubs.

I know everyone has to be a USATF member first...so take care of that on your own...then affiliate with TSP Athletics...

More information soon.

Still working on the videos from UCI.

Poomps the Taco Has a New Friend

Word on the street is that "Lucky" the beaver will be making a live performance at the UCI meet...

noreply@blogger.com (Pizzle) — Mon, 05 Mar 2007 19:12:00 +0000

CU = 2007 Ic4A CHAMPS!
Amazing, Cornell has has a Heps champ in the HJ and TJ, and different IC4A champs in the same events. While we cleaned up in the HJ, no 2.17 performances, so we'll have to wait to go to the big show outdoors. We will be represented though in Arkansas in the TJ.
Other then them, see CU jumps in Cali, ready to STING IT!

First Meet Coaching this season...

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Sun, 04 Mar 2007 07:56:00 +0000

Eve King, went 5'4" on a 5 step approach...Patty McD and I have already begun the smack talking, as he has made claims that he indeed has a few girls who "have jumped like 5'6"...or something"

SO the gauntlet has been thrown it's going to be NorCal vs. SoCal CUHJ TSP Alumni as coaches squaring off at the California State meet...

BRING IT.

David Pell Has Good Form!

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Sun, 04 Mar 2007 07:51:00 +0000

Perfect rotation, nice job...now get to nats!

HOLY CATS ...that's a sick jump!

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Sun, 04 Mar 2007 07:47:00 +0000

G-Rat has HUGE clearance over this...My days on the board are numbered...

noreply@blogger.com (Pizzle) — Wed, 28 Feb 2007 17:03:00 +0000

CU HJ Stung it at Heps, though CU did not sting it at the meet. Disappointing 3 pt loss to Princeton. 1,2,5 in the HJ and some sick performances all over for us, we just needed one more...
Anyway, here's Garretts link to 2.15:
http://people.cornell.edu/pages/dgp27/gar2.15.MOV
And my 2.15 jump:

Next step, IC4A's, looking for a few Provisional qualifier jumps. Stay tuned...

Heptagonal Games Are Fast Approaching

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Thu, 15 Feb 2007 07:04:00 +0000

I've still not had an opportunity to jump since Dec. though I'm happy about that because my basketball team is doing very well...keep up the good work fellas...and I'll post results when I get a mark. I think 2.03 is a good spring goal. I definitely will be competing at Air Force this summer to get back my championship at the State Games of America in Colorado Springs.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOO Sting It!

That's more like it, now get that indoor record...

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Sun, 28 Jan 2007 20:44:00 +0000

Senior co-captain David Pell led the way with a seasonal best in the high jump, equaling his indoor PR and the #3 performance in school history with a clearance of 6-11 (and an IC4A qualifier). He led a 1-2-3-4 Big Red sweep of that event as sophomore Garrett Huyler (6-7), sophomore Jim Smith (6-7) and freshman Jay Pierce (6-5) also scored.

MUCH BETTER GUYS!

track is upon us

noreply@blogger.com (scpynkeal) — Wed, 24 Jan 2007 08:15:00 +0000

so track season is just about to start for us old people. my first meet was supposed to be last week, but UH decided to cancel the meet due the account of them being retarded. im looking forward to the cornell cali trip. for now, im lifting/running as much as i can.

by the way sorry pete. apparently my source for the psu results, rayon, cannot convert from metric to feet.

The Wonders of Water

noreply@blogger.com (Pete Ippel) — Tue, 16 Jan 2007 18:40:00 +0000

I am a bit skeptical, about the "follow your thirst" part, as I've always figured that if you're already thirsty, it's too late...
