After the first 2 weeks of unfortunate weather, the middle school cross country team has had better luck lately and practices have started to ramp up. The team, coached by Matt Mouro, Meridith Dyer, and Nick Petito, is set to start their season on Saturday, September 10th, as they compete in the Lutheran South Invitational. This particular meet is a 1.5 mile event, which is shorter than most of the other meets the Vikings have on their schedule. The Vikings should be well-prepared, often running twice that amount at each of their practices. Coach Mouro is happy with the direction of the team, their attitude, and work ethic. Stay tuned for more updates from the middle school cross country program as their season progresses.
