The cross country team had their first and only home meet on Wednesday September 6. Since it was the only home meet for the season they had to recognize the seniors on the team. The seniors are Dominic Alvarez, Madison Eroh, Abbey Garrity, Samarra Reedy and Chase Teresavage.
“Senior night was something special to me since I was on cross country for five years,” Samarra Reedy said. “I will definitely miss the team and coaches and all of the memories.”
Senior night provides insight for the underclassmen on what to expect. The significance of senior night is to congratulate the seniors for their accomplishments and the hard work they put into the designated sport. During senior night, parents are also recognized by walking each senior across the track.
