Shea Laskoskie brought home the individual championship title in the junior high girls division, and Alex Lozoya (7th place) and Eli Jeffcoat (5th Place) both finished strong in the junior varsity division. Our varsity squads represented our school well with Hannah Smith finishing in 7th place to lead the Lady Owls' charge.

The only days students will be required to attend school during that week will be Tuesday, Oct. 12, and Wednesday, Oct. 13.
