Read more2024 was a great year for our cross country runners! We had one of our biggest teams in years, made up of returning and new runners. The junior high team saw a lot of success throughout the season, dominating meets and bringing home lots of medals and ribbons. I'm excited to watch these young runners progress in the coming years! Our varsity team also did well throughout the season, and we had 4 runners qualify for the state meet. John, Jack, Rance, and Zander ran at the state meet in Rapid City and represented our school well. I'm so proud of each member of this team. They gave their best throughout the season and worked hard to meet their goals. I'm already looking forward to next year!
