CONGRATULATIONS on an absolutely wonderful showing at the WSC Preview. You all showed improvement from the Blue & White and we could definitely see a change in your splits as you are becoming even more intelligent runners every week! Please take a moment to check your splits (under RESULTS to the right) and as always see us with any questions, concerns, and comments about your race.
An important cross country lesson that we can learn from this week is that EVERY place counts! You did an outstanding job and we are so proud of you for getting within a point of our competition, however we learn from everything we do. So just remember that each person you pass is critical to our success as a team and that may help you dig deep when the going gets tough!
Thank you as always to Barb Piccirilli and all the parent volunteers who made this meet a success! We are so lucky to have a home course and even luckier to have parents that support us each and every week! Special shout out to Mr. Voiers who took care of our "tree situation" in the woods! He is our official Team Lumberjack! Thank you Mr. Voiers!

Golden Spike Winners:
Hallie Bechtel - Hallie did a great job evening out her splits and crushing the competition! With a mile to go there were two key competitors within her sights and with every step she brought them closer and closer. Hallie used her leg speed and her commitment to the team to push her past the competition and into the chute. We could not be more proud!
Marissa Lee – Marissa dropped over 1:30 from Blue and White AND beat her goal time by 30 seconds! She is so dedicated at practice and also does a great job cheering on her teammates through tough workouts. Congratulations on an amazing race Marissa! We can’t wait to see what’s next!
