Our Lions and Lady Lions cross country teams ran at the District 7-3A meet Monday in Burkburnett. Almost every one of our runners set a new personal best at the meet, however this is a tough district and we were unable to get anyone out to regionals. Coach Robinson said the future is bright for the cross country team and was very proud of these athletes and their efforts this season. We apologize for not being able to get any photos of our Lady Lions in action at the district meet.
