Oncoming cross country

O'HARA LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE SUCCESS IN CROSS COUNTRY Head Coach Mike Martin is proud that the Archbishop O'Hara High School boys cross country team will be led by defending 2A state champion, Max Storms. "His summer running was intense," Coach Martin pointed out, "the coaches at the Joe Bill Dixon Camp said Max was the best in shape runner there." Sophomore Andy Meyer will be trying to fill the shoes of Matt Bader, a two time state qualifier. He will be followed closely by newcomer, junior Jerry Rellihan. Jerry was discovered while running the half mile during the track season. Junior Graham Grier may be limited in his running due to a broken bone in his wrist. He had intended to play football and is now giving his attention to running. Rounding out the varsity squad will be Kyle Van Hecke who is entering his third season and has put in some mileage over the summer, and Trevor Gudde, a senior who will also be playing varsity soccer. Freshman new to the team are Alec Robb and Colin McKinney Coach Martin said the girls team will be led by senior Aliyah Jones. Other returning letterman are Chelsea Rose, McKenzie Shelton, and Kristina Snyder. New to the program are sophomore Amy Gaston, and freshmen Alaina Webb, Katelyn Gutteridge, and Nicoleta Rowan. Coach stated, "The Celtics are anxious to hear what class they will be in this year and in what District they will compete. There is one change in their schedule this year as the boys will be attending the Forest Park Invitational in St. Louis the second weekend in September".
