7. It’s a great day to be a Warrior. The Boys Varsity Cross Country team took care of business and finished in 1st place at the Division III Regional Championships at Troy. It is a first Regional title for Mariemont High School. Leading the way for the Warriors was Nathan Kuck. Nathan, finished in a personal best time and along with Emmett Saulnier and Ben Gorman were awarded All Regional honors for their top 16 finish. Finishing out the State qualifying team were Bryan Routt, “The Young Freshman” Cooper Hayes, Luke Porst and Connor McManus. The boys will not go alone as Freshman Juliana Overbey finished in 14th place for her State qualifying run. The girls finished 7th in the Region as the best finish in the last 7 years. The runners/coaches and parents want to thank the Warrior Nation for all your cheers and enthusiasm. We’d like a repeat of that at State. The State invitational is at the National Trail Raceway in Hebron, just east of Columbus. The times for the races stay the same, girls at 11:00 am and the boys at 1:30.
