Results

It was a gray rainy day for Regional's at the Red bug motocross park in Buchanan MI. The girls team had one thing on their mind and that was qualifying for the state meet as a team.  

Course Preview run, proved that this was not going to be and easy course to run, it was all grass and very hilly. It was going to be a place race. The top 20 girls can qualify for state as individuals or if you put 4 in the top 20 you qualify as a team. We were shooting for putting 4 in the top 20 !!! 

The Girls pulled through and Qualified for State as a team putting 4 in the top 20 and coming in second for the meet. We are going to STATE !!!!! 

Here are a few pictures from regional's it was hard to get any real good ones because it kept raining.

HC Vs. Holland at Hamilton and HC Vs.Hamilton at South Christian

9/30/2015- HC Vs. Holland at Hamilton

The course at Hamilton was all NEW this year. That took a little getting used to but it was good because it was much less confusing and there was no hill. It was a nice simple course out and around the soy bean field behind the school. It was also a pretty fast course. It was a lovely day for running and spectating.

Results HC Vs. Holland

10/7/2015 HC vs. Hamilton at South Christian

This is the same course that we race the Christian school invite at, so everyone pretty much knows how this runs. It was a little warmer but a nice a day. HC girls had to run a smart place race. Hamilton has a strong top 5 and so do we. So we knew it was going to come down to being smart about where the girls placed. The girls were very excited and up to the challenge. They did a great job running against Hamilton. They are are now 4-0 !!!!
