Cross Country State Meet

Saturday, November 1 was the STATE Cross Country Meet.

Marissa ran in the 4K open run for the middle school. She did an amazing job finishing 9th in the race with a time of 18:05 - averaging a 7.24 mile for 2 1/2 miles. She finished in the top 10! WOW! She took 47 seconds off her previous time to secure a new personal best. She was presented a medal in the award ceremony.

This was a huge accomplishment for Marissa. She had never participated in this sport prior to this season. She was able to accomplish all her goals this season - of which one was improving her time each meet.

Way to go Marissa!
