The school recognized the team as they were leaving Friday morning |

The entire course (park) looked just like this |

And then the cold set in on the girls |
The Ira Cross Country team, which barely even existed a few years ago has made a name for themselves the last two years. They have qualified for state last year and this year. Running Cross Country is hard enough due to cooler weather but to add to those difficulties it was raining in Round Rock. That area had a lot of rain the week prior so the ground was saturated and it didn't take much to have a mud run. The course was the same for all the kids though. No one had a harder course than another. It was hard for them all. Sadly we didn't place as well this year (being from a drought ridden part of the state, there was no way to practice) but every girl finished and will never forget this meet.
Well done Ladies!
