The boys' cross-country team had a very eventful fall
break of tournament races, beginning with a runner-up finish in the
Sectionals. The team ran very well, highlighted
by the individual sectional champion Mark Bond.
Hari Sathyamurthy ran to a 6th place finish as well.
Next up for the Dogs was the Regional Championship, where
the team ran incredibly and placed 3rd behind Zionsville and Avon. Amazingly, all seven varsity boys ran
personal best times on the wet and soggy Ben Davis course, led once again with
a convincing victory by Mark Bond. The performance of the day, however, went to
sophomore Hari Sathyamurthy, who was the runner-up with a mind boggling 1 minute
personal record! He was followed by Elijah Wagner, Seth Webster, Marcus Fierek,
Brandon Britton, and Jack Thomas.
The top 20 teams in the Semistate went to battle last
Saturday, with the Bulldogs coming home in a very impressive 9th place finish,
only 3 spots out of qualifying for the state finals. The support of the junior
varsity Bulldog crazies helped to spur the boys on to a great race. The Dogs were led by Sathyamurthy but also
had extremely strong races from Webster and Britton. The boys end their season with a strong
record of 103 wins versus 72 losses.
