IHSAA Sectional CHAMPS!

Wildcat Fans,

Tonight the Wildcats won their first Sectional title since 2007.  Their team time of 81:20 is the 11th fastest in school history and the fastest mark ever posted at the Sectional for the Cats.  Sophomore Ethan Hoeft continued his strong October with a third place finish.  He was closely followed by Junior Joe Murphy, whose mark of 16:13 makes him the 10th fastest all-time Junior and #26 in school history.  

The Wildcats will toe the line on Saturday for the much anticipated Brebeuf Regional.

GO CATS!

Marion County Championships

Wildcat Fans,

The #10 Wildcats finished a very close second place at the Marion County Championships on Saturday.  Despite toeing the line without stand-out Senior Joey Khamis in the line-up, the 'Cats showed their depth by running the 20th fastest team time in school history and falling just short of their first County title since 2004.  The 'Cats had four all-county individuls; Ethan Hoeft (5th), Joe Murphy (9th), Jake Hanawalt (12th) and Adam Oldham (15th).

In Freshman Championship race the Wildcats lost another close race with the Bears of LC and to take Third.  They were led by two all-county freshman finishes; Matt Hoskins (5th) and Jonathan Dean (13th).  Likewise, the Bearcats of Fall Creek Valley won their FOURTH consecutive Marion County title.  The 'Cats were lead by three outstanding future Wildcats; Kyle Harris (10:29-3rd), Will Reid (10:38-5th), Alex Cordoso (10:41-7th).

What a great weekend to be a Wildcat...

GO CATS!
