The Knights girls team took on the 5A state cross country championships this past Saturday, Nov. 6th, placing on the podium with a team score of just 112 points, good enough for a third-place finish behind the usual 5A powerhouse teams of Blessed Trinity and St. Pius. The girls had an average time of 20:42 with a 1:55 1-5 split on the challenging course at Carrollton.

In terms of individual performances, junior Jamie Marlowe stood out with a 19:26 5k which was good for fourth place and the third-best junior time in the race, leading the team to their third-place finish. The team will conclude their season with the Meet of Champions on Nov. 13th.
