Boys Cross Country

The boys cross country team advanced all the way to Semi State after fighting hard at Sectionals and Regionals. At Sectionals they had a combined team score of 80 and placed third. At the Regional they had a combined total of 129 points and also placed third. Their low team score qualified the team to run at Semi State, making them the only Bulldog team this season to compete at that level. Sophomores Aaron and Aidan Lord were awarded All-Conference this year by finishing in the top seven at the Conference meet. This year the top five runners were freshmen or sophomores so next season looks to be promising.
