Carmel Classic


On Saturday, the Flashes took on some of the best teams in the state and ended up 4th! This was a good start to our season, especially after a great week of training. We were defeated by three highly-ranked teams, but also beat some highly ranked teams. These battles will continue as our season progresses.


#1 Carmel 20
#21 North Central 40
#17 Zionsville 42
#16 Franklin Central 62
UNR Warren Central 89
#32 West Lafayette 96
#26 Center Grove 98
#37 Chesterton 112

Perhaps the most impressive part of the day was the Freshman 4k. These guys really over-performed and I was ecstatic.Our freshman got nipped by a strong Zionsville squad by two points, but we will see them later this year for another battle.

In the JV race, the Flashes battled hard, especially over the second half of the race and finished a close third, again getting barely nipped by Zionsville.
