Solid Results on Tough Day at Conference

The Varsity overcame a huge crash in the first 50 meters of the race to win the Conference Championship despite losing Harrison Glazer to a sprained ankle and having several other team members run through injuries suffered in the fall. JV 1 was dominant in winning their race with an outstanding 26 point total. JV 2 went a few points better in winning their race scoring only 22 points. Congratulations to all on a terrific season!!

Next up will be the State Qualifying Sectional Meet in DeForest. This is a Varsity only meet. Please consider coming out next Saturday to support the boys’ bid to qualify for the State Championship.

Uniforms must be returned next week for everyone who has completed their season. Uniforms should be returned to a Coach at practice any day Monday – Friday next week. Please have the uniforms washed, dried, and placed in a bag clearly labeled with your name.
