Head Boys Coach Pam Gunneson was pleased with her team’s performance at the meet. “I am very happy with the boys 8th place finish, we actually tied with Shelton for 7th but their 6th runner was in before ours so they were 7th and we were 8th. Many of the top teams in the state ran in our race so respectively we ran very well out of the 20 teams who raced.”

The next meet is scheduled for Tuesday, Sep 20, 2022 with Madison’s Daniel Hand, Career Magnet of New Haven & Hamden High in Madison beginning at 4 p.m.
