Thunderhawks Kick off First Meet of the Year.

9/3/15-

The Wheatland Thunderhawks Cross Country team traveled to Norton, KS for their first meet of the year. High temperatures pushing 90+ degrees and little breeze were the conditions the Junior Varsity runners underwent during their race.

Selena Gorsky, Rebekah Kitch, Angel Mong, Dylan Boone and Wyatt Mong were the J.V. Team members for the meet. Angel Mong was 7th of 11 runners in the J.V race, followed by Sophomore Rebekah Kitch who placed 8th of 11. Selena Gorsky finished 11 of 11 for the final runner of the Junior Varsity girls.

The Varsity Boys team was Seth Hinman, Zac Funk, Julien Illo, Brice Hackler and Jesse Bogert. Hackler finished atop them all at 8th place for the top 15 medalists of the race. Illo came in 5 spots later for the 13th spot and Bogert right behind that at spot #14. Three medalists. Seth Hinman finished at 18th of 31 runners. Zac Funk was not far behind at spot 22. The Varsity boys took third to medal at the meet.

Overall, It was a great meet. The Thunderhawks can definitely build off this meet. The Thunderhawks will be in Quinter, KS for their next meet on 9/10/15.
