Coach Braden, “It was a good start to the Cross Country season. Even though it was a little on the warm side, we are ran well for the first meet. We had one medalistThursday at Tescott, and it was freshman Kelly Flickinger. Kelly ran well for her first high school cross country meet, taking the twelfth place medal home with her. Senior Noah Ghent has a great start for his first ever cross country meet, running a21:06 and missing a medal by only 24 seconds. Freshmen Mason Rohrer and Alec Vann, along with senior Mary Williams and sophomore Dakota Swader, all had respectable times for the first meet of the year.”
The Bombers next meet will be at Washington Country next Thursday September 7thwhen the girls run at 4:30 and the boys run at 5:20.
