It was another successful day at the state meet for Lindbergh Cross Country. The girls team finished 10th place, with our top four girls running PRs: Feven :27, Christine :08, Cindy :01, Norchel :14. The boys finished in 5th place, just 3 points out of 4th. Three of the boys ran PRs: Deven :10, Alex :01, and Colton :15. Daniel, Dupree, and Tyler all ran the second fastest race of their lives.

Our top individual placer was Feven, who ran an amazing race to finish in 8th place. She was in about 20th place at the mile, and she kept moving up throughout the race. Feven was the top finisher from the West Central District, which is impressive because she placed 6th at the district meet. Daniel finished in 21st place and was our top finisher on the boys side.

Feven’s time of 19:22 makes her the 5th fastest Lindbergh girl ever. Christine’s time moves her up to 15th on the All-Time list. Tyler’s time of 16:33 makes him our fastest freshman boy at the state meet ever. He also was the fastest freshman in the 2A race.
