2022 Outlook: “After graduating some very successful runners the last two years, we will be a little smaller in terms of overall numbers. We still have a few upperclassmen on the boys side leading the way, but the girls will be extremely young. Based on the off-season so far the boys should have a pretty solid top 4 while we fill in the rest of the varsity lineup as the season progresses and people step up into those spots.”

“The girl’s spots are all up for grabs. With being so young, it might take a little time for them to work their way into their roles. The goals for both teams are to work hard consistently, come out with winning records within the EPC schedule, and perform well at the District Championship meet at the end of the season.”
