Sectionals!


Congrats on a great season to the varsity runners. Last weekend, we ran districts. Though we didn't qualify to sectionals as a team, I am so proud of this team. Everyone on this team is a true team player, wanting the best for all the girls who line up beside her on race day. It has been great working with all of you.

CONGRATULATIONS to senior, Jillian!  She qualified for sectionals, earning 11th place in the hardest district this side of the state!  Let's support her this week by all coming out to cheer her on as she races for a spot at the State meet!
