Morale Maintained During Downpour

Congratulations to the Science Leadership Academy Cross Country Team runners who competed in today's Philadelphia Area Meet. The students arrived to the Belmont Plateau in good spirits. After several hours of rain, the students were wet but were ready to run! Congratulations to runners who secured medals, with a special shout out to Gold Medalists- senior Katherine Hunt and sophomore Desomond O'Donovan. Other team members who medaled are: junior Wynn Geary, freshman Ella Donesky, freshman Nia Lombo, sophomore Amelia Stuart, junior Thomas Jeffcoat and sophomore Kevin Courtney. Congratulations to freshmen Makhi Richburg and Antonio Flores, and junior Aaron Tang for finishing their first race of the season. As usual, junior Reggie Simmons ran through the finish chute with a huge smile on his face. Juniors Peter Ricker and Temperance Moore provided team support and helped maintained great morale. Thanks to Home and School for providing snacks and much needed rain ponchos. Go Rockets!
