XC racks up medals at huge Forest Park meet on Sept. 11!

What a joy it was to see all of our athletes give it their best at Forest Park! We are very proud of each one of you and thankful for the great families we had helping out and cheering us on!

Here are just a few highlights:

  • This was a huge meet with top teams from across the state (even a few other states) and over 2,500 runners.
  • Middle school girls finished their race in 2nd place out of 6 teams, led by Lynn Criswell (3rd overall). Cami Plymale, Faith Brown, Cali Plymale, Joella Petrossian, Caitlyn Clark and Kiera Stiles all medaled as well, contributing to the great team effort.
  • Middle school boys were led by Ruugan Lilly (medaled, 10th place). His five teammates did great in their first ever XC race.
  • Tabby Bryant finished in 2nd place overall in the Freshman Girls 3k race. Her three teammates Anya Stiles, Sophia Nguyen and Laura Blank all medaled.
  • Freshman boys were led by Mason Tallo who medaled for the Knights.
  • Our JV teams were led by junior Hunter Williams and sophomore Hannah Gresham in what was the first 5K XC race for many of our runners. These were huge races with 247 in the boys race and 191 in the girls race.
  • Boys varsity finished 5th out of 16 teams in the Varsity White Division, with only 4 points separating the 3rd-5th place teams. The Knights were led by seniors Adam Gresham (5th), Jacob Meyers (10th) and George Ball (28th) who each medaled. Sophomores Nathan and Caleb ran varsity for the first time in their first high school 5k race, joining Ethan and Sam to help the team’s strong showing.

    We’ll announce and celebrate those who set PRs at practice on Tuesday!
