Cedar All-Comers

Finally got our first meet of the year in!  The weather was great; nice temps and overcast - a great break from the 100+ temps.  The 6th-8th graders got us off to a good start with good runs from Alex and Kaden Klein and Alli Peterson.
We were missing a few of our top Varsity girls, but many others really stepped up particularly Aubrey McBride who ran 3rd on the team and placed 14th overall.  Leading the pack of Panther girls was Jessica Peterson who placed 3rd in 19:46.
The guys were paced by Michael Finch who ran a very strong and relaxed opening race for the win in the fastest opening Cedar time in recent years (15:31).  Byron Warby (8th) and Casey Kimzey (10th) placed in the top 10, and we had great runs from Jason Lindhardt and Taylor Abel.
Overall this was a good experience.  The first race is always a little tricky, but it is great to get one under our belts after a long hot summer.  Now on to Hurricane.
