STATE
On a sunny but windy, gusty day, the Liberty Girls & Boys ran great races in Pasco.  With times from 35 ~ 40sec slower for all runners, the Girls went 1st with Margeret in 35th & Cara in 71st.  Ben & Thomas ran close throughout with Ben kicking hard on the downhill finish stretch to outlean Thomas for 32nd & 33rd overall.  Calvin came in 123rd to close out the race action.  Crusing through White Pass and pizza in Randle was a new twist to a great weekend.  In non-running news, T-Daw broke the bread stick record with 20 fully consumed (and digested).

2021 Season

11-12 - Awards Banquet
- Our 1st time @ the La
ke McDonald clubhouse was a great success.  After a slow start, the season started taking shape midway with the help of Team Captains Mark, Katie B & McKenzie.  Taking a full bus to Pasco proved that hard work and a little magic did the job and made for a very memorable XC season with some new traditions started.  Awards:  Most Valuable -Thomas Manson & Hannah Burns, Best State performance - Ben Archer, Coaches Choice - Katie Blauvelt, McKenzie Maresh & Mark Stevenson.  2022 Captains - Ben Archer, Olivia Burch & Kaya Hill.  Great Job and thanks for all the help.

STATE - 2021
Moving up to 3A for 2021, both teams placed 13th of 20 overall on a sunny, windy day in Pasco.  Leading the girls at the start was Soph Ally Marckel until being joined by fellow Soph Hannah Burns on the downhill finish stretch.  Hannah was 62nd, Ally was 63rd and had a PR in 20:14.  Chezley finished 7sec. later with Margeret following in 20:37.  Next was McKenzie, Sophie & Sarah.  The Liberty girls ran the smartest team race in 3A as they all passed runners throughout the race by running even splits on the tough State course.  The 2021 squad ran a faster team average than the 2019 girls team and would have place 3rd overall if still in 2A!  -  Official Girls Results
In the Boys race, Soph Thomas Manson led the Pat pack thru 2mi with Ben Archer passing 15 runners in the last mile to finish 43rd with a 16:57.  Thomas was 13sec back in 59th with Senior Mark Stevenson in 63rd in 17:12.  Nick Ruiz passed 31 runners in the last mile to place 119th followed by Raymond, Cooper & Calvin.  If the Boys had raced 2A, they would have taken 6th overall.  The Boys also ran a smart race with lots of passing despite the increasing wind in the late afternoon.
