Cross Country Season Running Smoothly

As the cross country season progresses, so too do the team's hopes of attaining a state championship. The Running Unicorns had a strong showing on Saturday at the Hagan Stone Classic, demolishing 1A rival Bishop McGuinness by an impressive 140 points, 287 to 427. All 12 Unis who participated in the competition had times faster than 20 minutes. Eli and Justin did well, placing 6th and 7th for Science and Math, respectively. Outcomes like this demonstrate that our team has the quality and depth to compete with any 1A team in the state.

On Tuesday, the Unis took their cause to South Granville to wage a war of swiftness against the host team and visiting Carrboro High School. Taking only the development squad, NCSSM still showed progress and energy on a dreary day. Elliot and Caleb both ran strong races considering the difficulty of the terrain. First Hunt is proud of the way its runners represent the hall and the school. Keep up the good work!
