The Mulvane High School cross country teams traveled to Harvey County East Lake for the Berean Invitational this past Thursday, September 30th.

Almost all of our runners had their best times of the year." The girl's varsity team finished in 6th place and had three runners earn a medal. 
Freshman Leiannah Landreth, senior Kamryn Nolan, and junior Reagan Sparks in her first race back from an injury led the girl's team with 21st, 22nd, and 23rd place, all within 2 seconds of each other and each earning a medal. Landreth finished in 21st place with a time of 23:56.55, Nolan in 22nd place with a time of 23:57.17, and Sparks in 23rd place with a time of 23:58.64.

"We were happy to have Reagan and Miranda complete their first meet of the year," said Coach Roderick. "They have had some setbacks this season, and they will help our girl's team be much better moving forward."
