Throw Back Thursday - Brough to you by the 2010's: Pep Assembly
The Vikings showed up and showed out at the Freeland TVC Cross Country Meet on Tuesday night. The teams each had a strong team showing, while there were numerous personal records and seasonal record set. It was a beautiful evening for running and the Vikings took full advantage. Sergio Medina, Josh Gonzales, Alexis Unger, Amelia Espinoza, Alessandra Oldham, Cooper Light, Piper Sova, Brooklyn Rethman, Rylie Nachtweih, Evalynn Cole, Ava Howe, Vivienne Ardouin, Maximilian Rapin, Isabelle Stiener, Jack Conley, Isaac Ball, Urijah Hernandez, Lennon Klepsch, Seth Blankenship, Nick Bauer, Ryelle Thompson, Kenley Townsend, Zoe Baird, and Leah Hebl all set personal records last night. Great job Viking runners and don't hesitate to ask how you can become part of this elite group of athletes next season. We caught up with Ryelle Thompson after the race and she had this to say, "I've played a lot of different sports, but without a doubt, there is nothing more satisfying than crossing that finish line knowing that you've done better than you've ever done before." Very well said Ryelle and good luck as the Vikings only have two remaining meets.
