The cross country team had their last meet on Saturday at the regional meet in Seneca, Illinois.
Everyone was ready to run at 10 that morning, but there was a short delay on the race because of a small thunderstorm. The girls’ race was first, and senior Brittany Booth ran alone as an individual for Westminster.
Promptly after, the boys’ race began, and Greg Benson, Josh Cleghorn, and Isaac Benson also ran as individuals for WCS. Everyone ran through rain, mud, and puddles to get to the finish, and thankfully, everyone did finish. Each runner was supported by their family, and Mr. and Mrs. Palmer also came to cheer on the racers.
This has been a great season for the WCS cross country team despite not having a full team. Larry Cochran, especially, has been a wonderful coach devoted to the success of his team. The athletes have also been blessed with no major injuries, and great weather to run in. And most importantly, for all of these athletic blessings and talents, let the praise and glory go to God.
