Big Weekend to start October!

This past weekend the Jags split up the squad sending the Varsity A to Portage Invitational in Michigan, while Varsity B and the rest of the team went to the Legends meet in Trumbull County.  Both squads had a great day and all but 4 runners ran their season's best time.

In Michigan, the team of Annie Allen, Amanda Keim, Ali Blouch, Carlee Blankenship, Marie Musser, Danica Hruby, and Sarah Scott did some amazing things that were firsts in program history.  All 7 runners broke 20:00, which is a first in school history, and 6 of the 7 ran a lifetime PR.  As a team, they finished 4th out of 37 teams and beat Michigan's #4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, and 16th ranked teams in Div I in the process. 

At the Legends meet, the team of Anna Duesenberg, Bridget Chambers, Colette Conway, Emma Hvizdos, and Lizzie McGuire finished 7th out of 19 teams at a very competitive meet. 

Overall it was one of the best weekends in SJA cross country history!  Congrats to all!

Next is the NCL meet on October 12th being held at NDCL.
