St Francis Invite Results

Congratulations to Lachlan as he won his first high school Varsity race on Thursday at the St Francis Invite, leading from start to finish by himself to help lead the Boys team to a 2nd place finish out of 7 teams!  Owen was also a medalist with a solid 6th place finish just a few seconds out of a top 5 finish!

On the Girls side, Ruby continues to improve have strong runs, this time finishing in 5th place against one of the top teams in the state with two of the top girls individually as well in the state!!  Due to illnesses, though, the Girls team was an incomplete in the final team rankings.

Other top finishers on the day went to Mackenzie, as she took 3rd in the Girls Middle School race to earn her first medal in CC, and Faith, who was 7th in the Girls JV race, which got a little off course on the first lap, thus shorting their total distance to about 2.91 miles vs 5K.

Temps were warm, it was a new course for the Cardinal Runners, and weren't always clear, but it was a positive step for the team.  We will be needing to be watching everyone's health a little more over the next week to make sure the illnesses that are currently with individuals on the team don't spread through the rest of the team.  Thanks to all of the families and fans that made it out to the races!! Here also is a link to some pictures taken by Barb: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ajaeN4a3ceF_MQb50yNTX9P6yeD6Siuu  Other pictures are being posted on our Facebook page, but if there are others out there, let me know and I can get them out to everyone!

Next up is the Roy Griak Invite on Friday for the Varsity runners and the Osceola Invite on Saturday for the JV runners.  I will put information on both meets as well as rosters in a couple of days.

Thanks
