This weekend, the CHS boys and girls cross country teams swarmed in the first ever GHSA 3A Sectional 2 race and qualified for the state meet for the 12th consecutive year. The boys placed 8th and the girls finished 11th to secure the state birth. The boys secured a region runner up finish and the girls finished as the third best team from Region 7-AAA. The boys were led by sophomore star Demetrius Clavino with his 6th place finish in a fast time of 16:32 on the technical, hilly course. Senior leader Carolynn Dooley set the tone for the Lady Jackets, who ran her stronger race of the year and finished 10th overall in a time of 21:02. Xavier Hinojosa, Leyver Mendez, Walker Hurd, and Joseph Jones, Dayman Perez, and Robert Morales excelled and qualified for state. Dylan Duke, Giulianna Lopez, Maggie Malone, Sara Elise Gallman, Debora Lopez, and Saira Mendoza had great finishes on their way to a state qualifying run. The Jackets will hit the road again and travel to Carrollton on 11/9 to race in the GHSA State Championship Meet. #proudtobeayellowjacket 🐝
