Chillicothe Cross Country started off the season with a fast 2-miler on the MO Western Course Tuesday night. Boys finished 2nd place overall out of 29 total teams & 12 full teams, to a tough Benton team. 3 Hornet boys earned Top 10 Honors out of a field of over 130 runners. Luke Thompson led the way with another career win!
Girls Medalist
Yoo Jung Lee – 17th (14:33)
Coach Jennifer Dickson was pleased with her teams performance. “Overall this was a really strong start to our season! They’ve not raced a 2miler since middle school, so I liked starting the season off with a fast, all out race to see what speed we have right now. Trace Akers (12:14) & Zeph O’Berry (12:30) both had strong races & finished just out of a medal range (both top 30) to help secure 2nd. We are excited to see what we have in the full 5k distance next week as we head to Lafayette County, where our middle school XC Hornets will kick off their season!”
