The XC Teams ran strong at the Greenville Classic last Friday.
The guys improved their team time in the 8K by almost two minutes with seven of them setting PR's.
The women improved their 5k team time by almost four minutes with nine girls getting a PR in the 5K.

Great work Archers!

The XC Team ran strong this past Friday at the Bethel Invitational! Congrats to the Men's XC Team for setting a massive team record in the 8k, to Kevin Drake who finished 13th overall, and to the Women's XC Team for smashing previous PR's, and running debut 5k's!

The Archers had a great first 8k/6k of the season at the Ken Weidt Classic this past Saturday, hosted by Concordia University in Wisconsin.

Both teams ran strong races, set many new PR's, and gained valuable racing experience!
