ESPN will broadcast a story about the UHS girls cross country team (Eight-times state champions) and their coach, Jim Tracy, this weekend. The story focuses on all five of the student athletes who scored at the CIF state championship meet in November and goes into considerably more depth than the television coverage from last fall. An accompanying article will be posted on the ESPN website as well.
Update: The ESPN segment and accompanying article can be viewed here
To watch the segment, tune into your ESPN channel for:
1. 6:00 a.m. PST Sunday, April 17, for the sports news feature show Outside the Lines
2. Sunday evening for the national primetime SportsCenter which begins after the major league baseball programming, around 8:00 p.m.
3. A re-airing of SportsCenter overnight on Sunday.
UHS has not seen the segment but it was filmed over the past four months during several visits by the ESPN crew on campus and should run about eight minutes.
Go Big Red!
Awsome and inspiring!

The nine minute video on you tube: The finish line- coach Jim tracy, His faith is amazing, his words, his spirt, I feel like I know him but I don’t.
I have it posted on my f/ book page his message is all about setteling on the past and moveing forward.
We all work hard every single day at being better people, think I’ll take a page out of his book.
Our prayers to you coach from my daughters and I.
