Cross Country

In the month of November the well know cross country girls took 2nd place at state while the guys took 1st! The girls just wrapped up the nike cross regionals down in Arizona where they were victorious. They are headed toward Portland, Oregon for nationals. (Erin Hooker won an idividual title) The boys and girls cross country team finished a geat year, especially with a young team still. I talked to Erin Hooker during math class, and she gave me a well explained reason why they didn't win state. She told me that her and another runner were sick and were thrown off on their pace of running and track of working out. It seemed like the smallest of details could do anything for the running these athletes put up with!

Football

Late October, and early November the football team set out to go against Fossil Ridge and lost, which was a hard breaking game. However, they still went to the playoffs and put up a fight against Columbine who were ranked in the top 5 in state. This ended yet another season in the first round for the Lambkins. The guys ended their regular season at 4-5. and 4-6 to their final record.It was a hash year for football this year, and some of the inexperience, however, look forward to the girls, and guys basketball, along with girls swimming/diving and wrestling for this winter!
