The Blue Storm girls' cross country ran in the Gettysburg Invitational October 8, and six of the eleven runners came home with lifetime bests.
Head coach Betsy Cunningham noted that, "It was a flat and fast course", which helped the girls run well. Cunningham added, "Ella chose to go out hard as her race strategy while Greta chose to run cut down miles. Both ended up doing really well. Marli had a lifetime PR of 4 min. I was really proud of how well they did given the number of sick kids on the team right now."
