It was a tremendous day for our Cross Country teams at the Region I Cross Country Championships in Lubbock, which is never an easy place to run. Both the girls and boys teams qualified once again for State! Our girls team completed the trifecta, winning the Regional Championship for the third year in a row. The girls were led by individual Regional Champion Molly Garrison, who won the meet with a time of 18:06. Our boys team finished with our highest placing ever at the Regional Meet, coming in as the Regional Runner-up. Tyler Connelly is the new individual Regional Champion, clocking in with a time of 15:28. Extremely proud of all our runners! Their hard work, dedication, and early mornings are paying off!!
