Congratulations to our girls Varsity and Rising Stars groups for their excellent performances at NXR yesterday! NXR puts the top schools from Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi all together. Our Rising Stars (Freshman and Sophomores) took 3rd overall in their race and the Varsity squad ended up with a 10th place finish in the Championship race! That means the ladies ranked in the top 10 out of all those states. Pretty impressive and a great way to end the season!
We won’t have any organized practice this week. Runners need to take the week off and enjoy some time away. If anyone wants to participate in the Hog Jog on Thursday we’d love to have them but it needs to be for fun and not trying to break a school record. Here’s the link…

We also need LOTS of volunteers for the race. If you have a few hours on Thursday morning the help would be greatly appreciated! Here’s the link…

We’ll start back with our JH Off-Season workouts on November 27th. If those runners aren’t playing in another sport they can come over and get in a workout on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 3:15 – 4:30. 8GC athletes will walk up to the Fieldhouse and the 6GC and 7GC will ride the same bus over as they did in the XC season. These are optional workouts. The intent is to keep them moving in the winter months in preparation for the Track season in the Spring.
Thank you all for a terrific season! I’m always a little sad for XC to end but I can’t wait for a great Track season! As always…GO STATE CHAMPION RAMS! – Coach Collins
