As far as mentioning "tears" and Tuohy, its an unfortunate part of the sport. I see kids cry at almost every meet I attend. Its okay to cry, in private and mentioning it here was in poor taste. When it comes to crying and H.S. track I fault the coaches and parents directly. What is lacking in many sports programs is properly teaching kids how to lose with grace. Everyone loses, even Usain Bolt lost in his last 100m race. Losing happens, no matter how good you are its inevitable. You're going to have an off day. Coaches focus on winning, as they should. They teach kids the fundamentals and hone in on their natural God-given talents, creating "some" super H.S. athletes. Heres my advice: TEACH YOUR KIDS HOW TO LOSE FIRST....and prepare them for defeats and the pain that accompanies a loss. You will create a humble winner, and a graceful loser. Katelyn ran off the track without congratulating the three girls who passed her. Yes, she had a bad performance, but she owed those girls a handshake or hug. Just my perspective.
