Personal bests were more common than not as the Cross Country team took on TAE, Southern Springs, and Trumansburg on Tuesday  Watkins Glen State Park . The competition of many other talented athletes pushed Lansing to the top. Juniors Jon Cleveland (17:51) and Josh Barber (17:59) crushed their previous best times coming in 1st and 2nd in a field of 50+ athletes.
Tim Shea edged out T- burg with career PR of 19:14  followed by Luke Davis (19:19), George Wigsten (19:43), and Robin Hicks (19:44).  Even while feeling under the weather Alex Rogers (23:19) improved his time by over 4 minutes from the previous year as did Alec Iacobucci (23:16). 

Neila Thomas (26:45) had a stellar performance running over a minute faster than her previous meet. Shanna Swanson ( 23:58 ) finished 10th out of 23 athletes for the Bobcats.
The team travels to McQuaid this Saturday to run in one of the Northeast's biggest cross country meets. Over 200 teams will be attending.


Come support the  team at home next Tuesday and recognize our seniors Tim Shea and Michael Monacelli. Senior recognition begins at 4:45 followed by modified and varsity races. Lansing will compete against Marathon and Groton.
