Congratulations to seniors Margalit Mauricio & Will DeLoach for being named Spartans of the Week! (Week of October 30):

“Margalit’s running story is legendary. Her first year running she did not complete a 5k. Through continued practice and determination, she finished her senior year with an 11th place finish in the AA State Meet — helping the Spartans win the State Championship. Margalit’s quiet determination is inspirational to her coaches and teammates.

Will has been our leader this year. He is a rock at front and can be counted on to lead the team at each race. His consistency helped lead the boys to a runner up finish at the State Meet. Will finishes his career as the 4th fastest runner in school history – a very impressive career!” – Geoffrey Walton, Head Coach Varsity Cross Country
