Coach Wren’s Remarks

We ran a Boys JV team and a Girls JV team at the Southlake XC Invitational on Saturday. The boys' team finished 9th overall, and the girls' team finished 12th. Sutton Rasmussen and Addison Hamm led the way for the girls' team, while Arya Khanna and Farhan Mohammed led the boys' team. Overall, we had 35 athletes compete, many of whom ran their fastest times of the year.


 

Even without the Varsity team today, our fresh runners showed remarkable perseverance and determination in the face of tough competition and challenging conditions. Their hard work and unity on the course will drive them forward as they continue to grow stronger with each race. We're incredibly proud of their efforts and will keep pushing forward until the next race!
