The LHS JV Boys and Girls Team competed in a Tri Meet last Wednesday Oct. 16th against St. Joseph Academy/St. Ignatius and Mentor. It was a beautiful evening for a meet, held in the Cleveland Metropark's South Mastic Picnic Area.
Just four days after many of these runners ran PR's at the Conference Meet, they certainly rose to the occasion and took advantage of the beautiful weather, the terrific location for a meet, and the competition.
So much like the Cross Country Meets back "in the day", the chalk starting line and "Runners Set" and "Go" with a voice command, finish cards in the chute and adding up the team score in your head, the meet brought back great memories to those of us who raced back in less 'technical' days.
Thank you to SJA Head Coach Fred Keiser for inviting our teams to the meet.
What a fun meet for all, finishing the 2013 XC Season with a bang!
"Runner of the Week" for our JV/OPEN Meet on Wed. Oct. 16th goes to Freshman Micah Swartz. After running a PR 19:01 at Cahoon Park in Bay Village at the West Shore Conference Meet, Micah came back just four days later and tied his PR on a much harder course at Mastic in the JV Meet -VS- St. Ignatius/Mentor. Congratulation on two terrific back to back races!!
