And the 4x800 team consists of Greta Johnson, Kiran Thacker, Ali Kupec, and Aleska Zajac, who now hold 3rd place with a time of 11 minutes and 1 second. Another shout out to our girls' 4x100 team: Morgan Bridgeforth, Ella Daniele, Kyla Levy, and Zoe Bailey, which took 1st place with a time of 55.73. Overall, it was a wonderful day. The Lady Cougars' next meet is at home on Monday. Good luck, girls!
