The Braves cross country team had a successful showing at the regional meet this past weekend in Troy, Ohio. For the boys, David Kraushar and Kiefer Bell both ran outstanding races and ended up finishing in the top half of the field for the boys. Kiefer has had a phenomenal season as a freshman and congratulations to David for a great four years, he has made the entire team proud. For the girls, 5 of the 7 girls ran their personal bests at Troy, in rainy and cold conditions. Libby Farmer, Abby Bahlau, Hannah Lippencott and Zoe Moore all ran their best times. Overall the girls placed 11th, their teams best showing ever at the regional meet. The best moment of the day belongs to Maddy Iden, who ran a personal best of 19:04 and placed 19th overall, qualifying her for the state meet. Maddy is the first female runner to make it to state since the 1980s.
The football team fell to Ross on Friday night by a score of 18-7 in their final game of the season. The Braves finish 2018 with an overall record of 2-8, they were 0-6 in the SWOC, so we congratulate the football team on their hard work this season.
