Team:

• Girls 19 out of 31 schools participating.
• Boys finished 4 and did not score as a team.

Individual:

• Great opportunity to test ourselves against good competition and a tough course. Course has changed from previous years.
• Strong race individually by Colby Root. Guys continue to pack runners in close and are showing good improvements.
• Girls continue to gain experience against competition and course! Kaya runs her 3 rd sub-18 min career race. Colby runs fastest time on this course by 35 seconds. Chase runs 1.49 faster than League 07 here.

Weather was a bit warm, but athletes adjusted! Guys were in position to score a top half of the field finish when Ivan tied up and was forced to step off course at 2 miles.

We are looking to bounce back this week with a strong showing at the Metro meet.
