Our cross country team worked hard this season and it shows, with an overall earning of 25 medals in 7 different races. The team had a incredible increase of runners from the previous year with a total of 20, this is almost double what they had last year. The future of cross is looking bright even if they are losing some seniors who were an important part of the team.
