It was a great night for our cross country teams. We hosted the 3 Rivers Conference meet at the Harmony golf course. The boys had a great showing and took 5th place as a team with Andy Brown earning individual all-conference honors! The girls won the meet as a team with Charity Kingsley, Lillyan Kiehne, and Autumn Rakosnik (who took first overall!) earning all-conference honors! Congratulations to all of our runners and coaches on a great night and a great regular season. Now on to to the section meet next Thursday!
Thank you to the Harmony Golf Course, the Harmony Bank, and the coaches and workers who made the night so successful!
