Congratulations to the boy’s tennis team on their win against Brown County! Ryne Klinger, Zane Walcott, Eli Fields, and Christopher Zelhof won their matches to secure the varsity team win.
Yesterday, the Cross Country team competed against Owen Valley and Eastern Green. Both the boys’ and the girls’ teams placed first at the meet! Davin Norris, AJ Norris, and Josh Bryce placed first, second, and third overall with Hank Ripley and Logan Dohm successfully securing a first-place finish for the team. Of the 13 boy runners who achieved a PR, Nico Babbs, Tahlen Hamm, and Lucas Kingsbury all broke their current PR by nearly 1 minute!
The girls’ team was just 5 points away from a perfect score with Sophia Mobley placing first overall, Josephine Buckley placing third overall, Nerissa Zelhoff-Arriaga fourth, Greta Vagedes fifth, and Avi Grile seventh. Of the 5 girl runners who ran a personal best, Poppy Bishop and Kaitlyn Goodall ran nearly a minute faster than their previous PRs! Excellent job, runners!
A good effort was put in by both volleyball teams last night in their matches against North Clay. It was a tough loss. Ella Johnson and Ella Henry both had great games last night. Addilynn Winders had 16 digs, and Jenna Abram had 19 assists last night for the 8th graders.
