On Tuesday, the JV teams completed a sweep of the Dixie All-Comers. The ladies used strong packing led by Alli Peterson, who finished 2nd overall, to secure the win. The boys followed the girls' lead and were able to overcome the Hurricane Varsity squad to get a narrow win. Top finishers for the guys were Mikey Abbeglen and Nathan Beitler in 2nd and 3rd.
On Friday, much of the team went up to the Murray Invite and had great races. Carson Horspool led the Varsity guys to a solid 5th place behind 4 top 50 teams with his 14th place finish. Julien Canales, Dallen Gillespie, and Mitch Price placed solidly in the low 30's followed by Spencer Bell rounding out our scoring. The girls ran possibly their strongest race ever - placing a close 3rd to top 25 teams AF and Davis. Our 22 second spread was started by Jessica Hill, Caroline Clements, Rylee Holt and Josie Bushar who all placed in the top 30. And they were followed closely by Ellie Bushar to round out the scoring. In other races, we saw great finishes from Mikey, taking 2nd in the Soph race; Sylvia, who also placed 2nd in the Soph race; Janessa, who finished 11th in the Freshman race; and Alli who placed 12th in the Open race. We finished up the week with some nice fartlek work on the State course on Saturday morning.
This upcoming week will be a big one. We will be racing the Duel in the Desert with DH on Tuesday (see below), getting some big workouts in, and finishing the week up with the club car wash on Saturday. Let's have a great week filled with positive attitudes and hard work. We 've seen great rewards because of our months of hard work... Let's keep it all moving forward!

- Any parents/XC supporters that were planning on attending the Board meeting today, we have had a very progressive meeting with Craig Hammer and worked out pretty much any issues their are with our XC Clubs (Youngsters). Everything seems to be on the up-and-up and we can continue our programs with just a few minor adjustments. We thank you for your support as well as the Region for their support and note that because of the meeting that took place, we no longer feel it necessary to meet with the Board and discuss these issues.
