Ready to run - (l-r): Parker Napier, Jesse Thiele and Alex Thiele wait for the starter's gun to sound at a recent cross country meet. The three competed in the O'Neill invite, Friday.
While none of the Bobcat cross country team members earned a medal in Friday's O'Neill Invite, they gained experience for upcoming meets.
Coach Shannon Schumacher called the meet "competitive."
"Our kids came out and put forth a great effort against the strongest competition we have seen this year. We might not have been in the medals this time, but this team always comes out and gives it all. As a coach, that is all you can ask."
