Gilbert
Keagan Albertson placed 12th among the top 3A runners, which he was the only 2A medalist. There were 25 ranked teams at the meet so medaling was very tough. Overall, there were many personal records and meet records set and both teams competed very well!
Osage - Junior Varsity
Overall, the JV Team competed very well at the varsity level! Both coaches were very happy with the amount of effort both teams did! Congrats to Dirk Zeman and Allison Wirtjes for the meet records, beating their times from last year’s Osage Meet time and Dirk for medaling - 19th Place! The course was a bit long, a couple sharp turns which can slow the momentum, rough terrain, and warm weather. When looking at a level of success of a meet or race, there are three components that I like to look at the “PET Scale” - Place, Effort, and Time. If you can have all three going for you, it is called the hat trick of the race. However, there is one things that you can control and that is effort. Again, the teams’ efforts were great! The packs and making or covering moves were apparent!
