On Tuesday, September 17th, the THS boys cross country team secured victory against Wolcott, St. Paul, and Kennedy.
In just the second race of the season, the Raiders made significant progress, with three runners placing in the top five and breaking the 19-minute mark in the 5k. Scott Spooner finished first, achieving a personal record of 18:37, while Brendan Keskula came in third with a seasonal best time of 18:46. Aiden Mabe followed closely behind, also setting a personal best with a time of 18:50
Coach Mrs. Ferrare expressed optimism stating that “I am very excited to see what this team can do especially considering it is the beginning of the season.”
The girls cross country team also performed at the meet at Wolcott and despite not having enough athletes to score at the meet, Ella Le, Sarah Logan, and Rita Lopes all achieved personal bests showcasing their dedication and work to the sport.
The team’s results indicate a promising season as they continue to build strength for the upcoming season.
