Cards Open the Season With Silver Medals!

The Cardinal Cross Country Team started off the season with a strong showing, as both teams finished 2^nd overall at the Sycamore Sunset Invitational. The girls squad, defending their rank as the 3^rd best team in the city, were lead by senior standout Kristen Seiler, who finished 4^th in the race with a time of 19:49. The rest of the varsity girls packed up behind her, with five more girls finishing between 21:03 and 21:12. Junior Christina Haffey was one of those five girls, producing a strong race in her first ever 5K. In the boys race, junior Nate Sizemore lead the charge, finishing 4^th overall with a time of 16:54. Sophomore Marcus Price (7^th overall) and seniors Calvin Hester (9^th) and Shawn Messerschmidt (10^th) all finished under 18:00 and gave the Cardinals a dominant front pack, with four runners in the top ten of the race. In addition, numerous junior varsity runners produced personal best times, showing a great amount of depth for both squads this season. After taking this weekend off, the Cardinals will travel to the Greenville Invitational.
