COACH BUSSAN’S COMMENTS: This meet features the opportunity for the athletes to run against only those of their own age.  It required at least 3 girls in a class in order to have a team score.  Our senior girls had a tough battle with Hempstead and West.  Competitions like this will only help us improve.  Kelsey Tompkins had an excellent race in finishing 4th against a field featuring some of the state’s best.  Our junior group also had a strong showing.  In particular, Emily Long ran very aggressively taking the lead in her race after the mile mark and battling Alex Langland of Waukon throughout the race before finishing 2nd.  Both Kelsey’s and Emily’s performances represented significant improvement over last week’s efforts at the Lynx Invitational.  Paige Bonjour also had a great race as she battled in the top 10 throughout the competition before finishing 10th.  Overall, our girls team had a solid night but we continue to need to improve if we hope to achieve our season’s goals.

COACH BUSSAN’S COMMENTS: We had a few good individual performances as a boys

squad but struggled as a team to put together a consistent effort.  Ben Lambert had a solid run in

finishing 4th in the freshmen race.  Chris Wardell had an excellent effort in winning the senior

race with a meet’s best performance of 17:01.  Alex Flege went out aggressively but suffered a

severe side stitch while Jesse Ogg struggled early with sore hips before moving up through the

field as he loosened up.  As a squad, we have a great deal of work to do and a long way to go

before we become competitive as a team.
