Cross Country is a sport of true grit. Athletes shown are Isaiah Huffman, ‘27, Simone Soricelli ‘27, Sehna Fiamor, ‘27, Esther Seo, ‘28, and Valentina Miyoshi, ‘27. The team are student athletes first. Soricelli is shown doing classwork in Mrs. Dwyer’s AP Lang classroom. Soricelli is an all A student with AP classes while maintaining her spot on the varsity team. When preparing for a meet, the athletes stretch so they won’t get injured. Huffman is stretching and preparing for his varsity race at the Grit N’ Grind meet at CSUSM on Sept. 27. The teams at Grit N’ Grind demonstrated what hard work looks like and was a hopeful meet for the freshmen as Abiel Hailey, ‘29, PR’d along with Piper Kruse, ‘29. The course was repetitive and dry but the team kept pushing to prove that they belonged at this invitational. With the cheering of their teammates on their side, they were able to complete the race with a strong pace and stride. The support from fellow teammates is what makes meets encouraging and worth it. Keep up the hard work, Grizzlies!
