Week #10-8/27-9/2

We made the best of what we had to work with this week in terms of the air quality. We capped off the smokey week with both teams finishing 2nd at our first meet of the season! Kelsey Swenson won the girls race, solidifying her 4th Jere Breese title! It was a great way to finish off the week and carry us into week 10.

We have our next meet in Eugene at the Invitational, hosted by Marist. It should be a smooth fast course with solid competition. Let’s Hope the smoke stays away so we can run outside! We have some events this week as well as some future events and details to check out below. Thanks!
