with spirit and energy! Cheering each other on in VB tryouts, CC timed running, and FB drills. Coaches are seeing
ALL OUT efforts by many, many athletes and it’s spreading throughout Dowell! Just an amazing first week!!!
Our MISD Athletic Character Word of the Week is “Attitude”. Coaches visited with athletes this week about positive
attitudes and creating a positive team mindset. Our Dowell Athletes of the Week: Lillian Pierce, Jay Thompson,
Sarah Fambro, Avery Leblanc, Kimberly Atienza, Aidan Myscich, Ryan Radtke, Carter Whitefield.
Volleyball tryouts ended today and letters go out this afternoon to all girls who participated in tryouts. We will
have our VB Team Parent meetings this coming Monday, Aug. 29th, at 6:00pm in the Dowell Gym.
VB and FB parents: Jersey Mikes is our “Pre-Game” meal service. This is optional for game day food. Forms are still
available through the coaches - forms are due Aug. 31st. So, August 31st – last day for Jersey Mike’s forms at Dowell.
This coming Monday, we start up week two of VB, CC, FB workouts. We’re excited about growing, improving in our
sports. Eating well, resting/sleeping well, staying hydrated throughout the day, is so important for our young
athletes. Being prepared for class, taking care of classroom assignments, and developing relationships with their
teachers is also very important. We want our athletes to be the very best in all that they do!
“First, we make our habits and then, our habits make us”.
Enjoy a great weekend with your young athlete! Spend some quality time together! Rest up too!
GO DOWELL!!!!
