Boys’ Cross Country had Sectionals on Oct. 8 where Ralph Brown, junior, won first in long distance. Seven members of the team placed in the top twenty-five of runners. Placing fourth overall at Regionals on Oct. 15, the boys will advance to Semi-State tomorrow at New Prairie High School. Brown also placed third overall at Regionals. 

“I never expected I’d end up being fourth on the team,” Josh Serrano, junior, said. “At Semi-State, I hope to break 18 minutes for a 5k.”
