The Lady Scots Cross Country Team began their competitive season on Friday, September 4th. The team competed in a 5K Intersquad Meet at Norbuck Park. The team was divided into three divisions, and there was a winner in each division. The winners were senior Katarina McIlveene (24:58.9), sophomore Ella Madden (24:32.7), and senior captain Cameron Fawcett (18:45.2).
