The JV Girls started off the day with Olivia, Colleen, Mary, Clara, Casey and Caitlyn going 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 13 to take first place as a team. The JV Boys followed with Ryan, Lucas, Julian, Ezra, Oliver, Ameer, Caleb, Yates, Jackson, Kevin, Robert, Kelvin, and Luke taking 2nd place as a team.
The stage was now set for the varsity races - as the top 4 teams would qualify for state. Claire, Maggie, Kate, Lucy, Ronnie, Emma, and Jenna led the girls team to the Region Championship with the first four runners placing in the top 10! The boys race saw Ethan and Mark finish in the top 10 - with Wade, Jacob, Richard, Jude, and Jaxon close behind. In a very close team finish where every point mattered, the boys team finished 3rd and is headed to STATE! Congratulations!!! The coaches would like to thank everybody that came out to cheer on the runners this past weekend. Thanks to Discovery HS and all the volunteers that worked to host the region championship race.
