Congratulations to the Wildcat Cross Country Team for outstanding performances this past weekend at the Coach Wood Invite. The girls team started off the day, by setting up camp in the pitch dark – realizing that the college had paved Wildcat Paradise and put up a parking lot. Fortunately, Woody and Willard prowled through the jungle grasses to find a nice plot to call home.
Perfect racing conditions throughout the day led the JV girls to a 14th place finish in the JV Championship Race led by Ahna L, Callie D, Megan J, Julie H, and Yarden T. The Varsity Girls finished 16th in the Championship race led by Samantha C, Emma S, Anna M, Ally W, and Julia E. The JV boys finished 11th in the Cardinal Race led by Jan E, Brandon S, Brian W, Abner B, and Noah C. The day came to a close as the Varsity Boys raced the Cardinal Race bringing home the 3rd place trophy. The boys were led by Max M, Phineas H, Cade L, Walter H, and Leighton C. Congratulations to all the racers; and a special thanks to all the parents that made the trip to cheer on the Wildcats.
