The Logan County cross country teams closed their regular season with what Coach Greg Howard calls “their expected and usual results with great improvement, vigor and a zest to show their friends and family what hard work can do.”
The Cougars held their annual cougar Run on Saturday, Oct. 5. “Our kids competed, as always, at a high level and tested home turf for the first time this season. The Cougar Run attracts many great teams and runners, and this year was no exception,” Howard says.
The next and the final regular season meet was also held on the LCHS course, the Western Kentucky Meet of Champions on Saturday, Oct. 26. This meet also hosted many fine runners and much improved times for the majority of our runners.
Junior Levi Crossley won the meet and the Cougars finished second as a team
