We all know about the successful runners in the high school, but what about the middle school? Eighth grader Jordan Yawn has found great success in middle school cross country. Yawn placed in the top five in every single meet this season, including the middle school state meet where she placed second. Among her many achievements are two first-place finishes, one at the conference meet and the other at the Greenfield meet.
“If she keeps working hard, Jordan will make a great addition to the varsity team next year,” commented Yawn’s cross country coach Carl Spoerl.
Finding equal success in high school cross-country will not come without its challenges. High school courses are a half-mile longer than are middle school courses and there is much more experienced competition. Yawn will have to work harder than ever to find as much success in high school as she has in middle school. Keep up the good work, Jordan!
