Dan Hilen, Lakota East Sports Information
Halloween was a very special night for East freshman Alaina Norman. Her 11th place finish at the OHSAA Regional Cross Country Meet advances her to next weeks State Meet in Columbus at Scioto Downs. Her time for the 3.1-mile course was an impressive 19 minutes and 32 seconds in cold and windy conditions.
“This is an amazing feat for a freshman,” said head coach Adam Thomas. “We all wish Alaina the best of luck this Saturday in Columbus.”
The entire girls’ cross country team also had quite at day Troy. Their amazing 5th place finish narrowly missed them qualifying as a team for State (top 4 teams and top 16 individuals qualify). The Lady Hawks defeated many teams ranked ahead of them from Cincinnati and Dayton. Junior Colin Apperson placed 19th overall individually and just missed qualifying for the state meet by 3 places. Congratulations to Kelly Burrows, Brittney Graham, Hailey Monnig, Victoria Reick-Mitrisin, Rebecka Sepela, and Grace Vandegriff who were all a big part of East’s success at Saturday’s race.
