2021 Black and Gold Intra Squad Meet

 Solid results from our first "race" effort of the season.  This was our first time trying to compete in hot weather in almost 2 years, and I think it showed a little bit.  I feel that we are in slightly better shape than these results indicate.....but these results are pretty dang good!

Varsity Boys #2 all time team time 53:28
Varsity Girls #7 all time team time 72:26

Add to this the fact that our #1 boys time was run in the cool twilight against another school, and this year's team starts to look pretty good!

Here's a link to the results and splits
