STUDENT BULLETIN

Student Recognition and Congratulations:

Congratulations to the Lions Cross Country team at Englewood High School’s Windjammer Invitational on Saturday! Addi Iken won the Girls Varsity race with a smoking fast 18:44. In the Boys Varsity race, Christian Sapakoff, Tyler Ervin, Bruce Barnstable, Ethan Ogden, Christian Olsen, Colin McCormick and Charlie Meserve combined for a seventh place finish in a very competitive field of 25 teams representing 5A, out-of-state, regional foe and mountain schools. Even better, many of our team members ran their personal or season best times! Just the right way for the Littleton Lions Cross Country team to enter the championship part of the season.

Next up for the Lion harriers is our League Meet at Clement Park on Thursday, October 13. The first race is at 3:00 p.m. Come cheer the team on!
