Let’s be honest—winning is fun.  But on October 14th, the Lady Lobo Cross Country team showed they know there is something more important than winning.

Yesterday, the Running Lobos from SFJH competed in the Nebo District Cross Country Finals in Payson.  All junior highs in the district participated in the meet.

The boys’ team came in with a strong fourth place finish.  Tanner Olsen, Wyatt Evans, and Jordon Scott were our top finishers.  Nice work gentlemen!

The girls finished seventh in the meet.  While this might seem like a disappointing showing, the girls’ team showed they possess poise and sportsmanship to an extraordinary degree.  (See story, Winning Isn’t the Most Important Thing)

Parents, Students and Friends -
