“A solid performance overall. All three of our returning girls (Ruby, Alexandra, Avery) had their best Sectional place finishes, while the rookies (Natalie, Rebekah) chipped in good runs with Rebekah scoring a personal best. Both Augustus and Ruby were in the hunt for qualifying for State, but just came up a bit short despite strong efforts.” Pat Hodge-Princeton Coach
