"We have battled a lot of sickness and injuries this year and to have a full team today and for a few to run their best times of the year was very satisfying." Junior Robbie Hadley advanced to the Sectional meet on the day. Coach Eisenhauer said, "I am really proud of Robbie for advancing to Sectionals. We were in a loaded Regional this year and for him to get out is great. This is the strongest Regional I can ever recall coaching in." Robbie will now run in Sectionals at Trenton Wesclin next week. Good Luck, Robbie!
