Panthers headed to Cross Country Championship

This Friday the Cass Lake Bena Cross Country Team will be competing in the Section Championship. Over 125 of the area’s top runners from 27 teams will be competing with both individual and team trips to the state championship on the line. The Panther team has made its mark on the season and will be well represented at the Section Championship by four runners

Freshman Markis Washington will make his return to the Section Championship after running as an 8th grader last year. The All Conference runner has been a medalist at multiple meets and his 18:24 race time puts him in State contention.

Zane Halse has been rising through the rankings throughout the season. The Freshman ran a personal record of 20:40 at the Section Championship and recently placed 8th overall and second in his age group at the Bemidji Blue Ox 10K.

After dominating the Junior High race season, Fabian Wittner earned his spot as a Varsity runner at the Section Championship. The 8th grader has been a medalist in every race he has run this season including multiple top 3 finishes.

Brayden Dahl returns to the Cross Country team after finishing the football season. As an 8th grader last year, he was a multiple medalist, competed in the Section Championship, and holds the school 2 mile record.

The Section Championship will take place on October 24th at the Twin Pines Golf Course in Bagley. Please consider supporting our amazing runners.
