Kenwood Cross Country Starts Off With A Bang

After waiting almost five days due to heat, storms, and holidays, the Cross Country team finally ran their season opener against Chesapeake, Owings Mills, Randallstown, Dundalk, at Overlea.  The first male finisher overall was Sophomore, Greg Alexander while the first female finisher overall was Senior, Rachel Bauer.  In fact the Kenwood boys team took first place single handedly while the girls team barely squeaked out victory even with being a few runners down.  Rachel Bauer became the third fastest female Bluebird with her run in her first ever meet.  The following were the results:
