Their first meet is two months away, but @SC_Track_Field distance mainstays Katelyn, Kaylie, Tayton and Ethan have already put in 11 weeks of off-season work. Excited to see them race.

5A STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS 🌧️
History was made in both 5A championship races at Rim Rock Farm, as upsets and dominating performances highlighted the season finale.
After being even through the first two miles, Spring Hill’s Logan Beckman put his foot on the gas and pulled away from the pack to win his first-ever 5A state title. Beckman clocked 15:23.94, the second-fastest time of the day. Beckman also led Spring Hill to their first state title in program history, knocking off the two-time defending champions Blue Valley Southwest, 35-40.
On the girl’s side, Salina Central senior Katelyn Rupe successfully notched the three-peat, winning her third consecutive state title in cross country, and her seventh overall. Rupe took down pulled away late and broke the tape in 17:09.77, a new Rim Rock Farm course record. For the third-straight year and fifth time since 2017, the ladies of St. James were crowned 5A champions, moving up over the last two miles to pull away for a 77-93 victory over Kapaun Mt. Carmel.
Congratulations to all of the 5A runners and teams for a great season!

Great day yesterday, 4 ft pr and a league title. My first year of track has been fun, but it's not over yet. Regionals next week for the chance at state. @PIAthletes @SC_Track_Field
