We ran at Cross Country Regionals yesterday in Corpus Christi. That is a LONG bus ride and a tough course. We did not advance to state this year, but I believe we will keep working hard and will move up next year!
Our girls 2 mile times were Kyli H 15:47, Koree H 18:50, Blakeney W 19:06, Saydi H 19:24, Lauren C 19:27; Boys 3 mile - Travis Z 20:13, Kai H 22:08, Tanner W 22:21, Zack R 22:34.
I’m extremely proud of these kids & I’m already looking forward to next year!
