On Saturday, November 2, our boys and girls Cross Country teams ran in the Class 3 District 4 meet at Platte Ridge Park. The top 30 individual runners and top 4 teams advanced to the State Championship meet, which will be held next Saturday in Columbia, MO. Congratulations to our State Qualifiers:
Jocelyn Calvert, Emily Whitworth, Hunter Thompson, Miles Hochwender, and Owen Weatherspoon
The course was nothing short of grueling. Throughout the season, our runners battled injury and illness. Coach Weatherspoon said, "I am proud of how our runner showed up and competed."
