Hey girlies!! Hope everyone made it home safely. I wanted to make sure you all knew the kid who got hit has survived. Here is a news article about it from the Arizona Republic...

Saturday afternoon, students at Brophy Prep High School file in and out of a campus square, shaken. Inside they hug, write letters and hold a prayer vigil for 18 year old Robby Mayasich. Adria Renke from Brophy says," He's brilliant. He's waiting to get letters from Harvard and Brown. Pre med. Curious learner. Great all around kid."
Robby was running a leg of the Ragnar Relay Series. The company sponsors 24-hour relay races in different regions of the U.S. This one was a two day relay from Prescott to Mesa. According to DPS, Robby was running along the Carefree Highway just north of Peoria at one o'clock Saturday morning. Though he was accompanied by an escort car, Robby was hit by another car on the road and suffered head trauma and several broken bones; Saturday afternoon he was in critical condition. Robby is the son of KPNX Sales Manager Dan Mayasich.Robby's grandfather, John Mayasich, was a member of the US Olympic hockey team in 1960. Friday night, NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams interviewed John for a story on the 1960 team.
