Kai Sepulveda closes out his senior cross country season with a 36th-place finish at the UIL 5A State Championships! 3 consecutive state appearances and a legacy that will forever be part of South XC. You set the standard, left your mark, and made South and all of us proud.

When someone holds you accountable, be thankful. They’re helping you get better and preventing you from doing things that undermine your influence and your performance. If they speak the truth, it’s because they care. Humility is the key.

One of them earned a spot at STATE. The other four earned something just as meaningful: the opportunity to help their teammate chase one final dream. This is what being a TEAM is all about. FLY AS ONE. #OneTeamOneGoal #HawkFamily #Brotherhood #StateBound #UILStateXC

Coaches: Your athletes will hear the tone of your voice as much as the words in your pre-race talk. Be clear about the plan. Let them know you believe they're ready. They already know it's a big meet.

For the past 4 seasons, Kai has set the pace for South XC. The 2x State Qualifier has led the Hawks each season of his career. With champ season here, his focus turns to the District 32-5A Championships, and another postseason run. Keep leading the way, Kai.
