It was even more beautiful with all of our Cross Country members' parents/guardians in attendance. It was an afternoon to cheer on all the cross country members and to recognize their parents. The Senior Cross Country Members were also specifically given recognition- as this is their last year participating in Cross Country. Senior members of this year’s Cross Country Team include Jennifer Barnett, Jason Weston, Owen Bekanich, Caleb Zephier and Vincent Bechen. Most of these runners have been in Cross Country since the 6/7 grade. It is a pleasure to have such a great group of Senior Student Athletes to guide the younger runners on our team.
