1-Who are the top returning varsity player(s) on your team (with grade/position/past All-GLC recognition, brief description etc.)
Jenna Dixon is a returning Junior. She has demonstrated leadership qualities and the dedication to the sport that coaches seek in athletes.
2- What are the keys to your team’s success this season?
We are a young team and are focused on building on our runners experience from last year. We have a couple multi-sport athletes who are well rounded additions to the team this year.
3- What is the biggest goal for the season and what is it about your team that will help them achieve it?
Our biggest goal is to be competitive this year. Our numbers last season prohibited us from competing to score. We’re hoping this year’s additions will give the entire team an opportunity to improve on personal times and team successes from past seasons.
4-What will set this team apart from past teams?
We have a young team with several athletes that participate in multiple sports and that gives us a well rounded squad to learn and grow with.
5-What did last season teach your squad on how to overcome adversity?
Last season taught us to just roll with the punches! Between Covid protocols and the dynamics changing seemingly day to day, we learned to do what we can in the moment and train for anything!
