Cross Country - OKC
Joel Wilson, track coach last season, has agreed to coach a cross country team this fall in OKC. In order to organize this, however, we must know if we have any interested students. The runners have to run from 1 to 3 miles at the meets but once they have run they can go home. Consequently, the time commitment at the meets is much less than track. Local high school teams are already beginning to train, so reply to Linda Harris at 405-844-8047 as soon as possible.
