The Boys Cross Country team traveled to Bozeman, Montana, in late July for their pre-season retreat. Higher altitudes near 5000 feet and lower temperatures in the 60s were a perfect blend for training. Upon their return, the Mavs took third place at the Greenhill 6-mile relay on August 29 at Norbuck Park. The Mavericks only trailed 6A Keller HS in the final standings and earned a third-place finish out of 74 teams. The race format is a 6-mile relay with each of the four runners completing a 1.5-mile loop over hay bales and up a steep hill. The baton is a garden glove, a tradition in the 41 years of the competition. The Mavs will return to Norbuck Park on November 7 for the SPC championship race. The St. John’s Boys won SPC 4A the past two years.
