Last week in Fresno was such a good preview for our season this year. We looked strong and ready to bring a talented team to the GSAC conference. The meet left us feeling excited, bonded, and ready for this year...So we thought.
Sunday night was one of devastation for many of us athletes at Point Loma. We found out that the Men of the Point Loma track team, cross country, golf, and women's softball were being cut due to title 9 issues. I could not believe that half of the hardworking Point Loma team would be cut. I do not think that people understand that we are one team. We are not the men's team or the women's team, but one big team. We work out together, travel together, have devotional's together etc. We cheer each other on and we hope for just as much success for each other.
All of of girl's were excited to see our mens 4x4 team qualify this year due to last year being so close and resulting in them falling a little short. This was their year to make it in. They have new talent and seniors with such heart to do well. Now with this news, we have men who are looking for other places to live their dream and we are slowly seeing our team ripped apart. It is hard being in this situation and having no way that you personally can help. We are all so shocked and hurt over this news, but we know God has a plan.
Love you Loma
