The boys XC team continued their winning ways by easily winning the Marauder Invite. The boys scored just 38 points to beat second-place Okemos which tallied 74 points. There were 15 teams in the meet. Eli Meder was the Cougars top finisher in 2nd place, followed by Will Peters in 3rd. The top-seven was rounded out by Eric Warriner, Josh Frary, Colin Cooper, Matthew Jenness and Alec Barrone.
On the girls side the Cougars came home in 4th out of 15 teams. Many of the more experienced girls were not in the lineup for the Cougars but a younger and inexperienced lineup stepped up for a strong finish with many of them scoring at the varsity level for the first time. The top seven runners were Addison Puck, Mia Brown, Hayley Prokop, Adeline Hauck, Claudia Spence and Annie Dudley.
Next week the Cougars are in action on Tuesday at Eaton Rapids and Friday at MSU.
