Cross Country is a bright and early sport. Most meets happen at 9 am on a Fall Saturday Morning. However, this week was different. The Girls Cross Country team traveled to Centerville to compete in Centerville’s “Saturday Night Lights”. All races happen as close to dark as they can as runners race under the lights. The Vikings didn’t let the change in scenery phase them as they cruised to a clean fifth place out of 31 total teams.
Individually, the Vikings were led by Clara S. who placed 17th with a time of 22:59. Miranda B-Y. was the next Viking to cross the finish line in 44th with an end time of 24:03. Melanie Q. followed close behind in 53rd place ending with 24:32.
The Vikings will return to action on Saturday, October 5, for the CBL Invitational at Buckeye Valley.
