Jim Hillner's best time was 21:01, Josh Olson's was 28:15, John Stein's 21:11, Jena Stenberg 26:59 and Jamie Rost 24:39.
Several students qualified for the state meet held in Helena on the past Saturday, Oct 21st. All schools, AA,A, B, and class C all run but not at the same time. There are hundreds of kids running at this meet.
Jena Stenberg said that the team trained sometimes on a hill that is 1/2 mile long and steep. The team would do sprints on the hill and Jena said that it was the hardest workout they did for the season. When asked what the best part of running was, she said "After you are done, you feel good!" Congratulations Cross Country team on a successful season.
