HS XC: Iola Mustangs
FORT SCOTT After last weeks season opener at Garnett was canceled due to weather, the Iola cross country team rebounded a week late in style, winning three out of their four races and finishing second in the fourth.
The Iola boys varsity and junior varsity and girls junior varsity started the season on top while the varsity girls finished second against a tough and experienced Fort Scott team that finished third overall at state last season.
The Iola varsity boys claimed six medals after placing six of their seven runners in the top 15, led by sophomore Jack Adams who finished third with a time of 18 minutes, 14 seconds, and senior Cole Regehr who finished fourth with a time of 18:33.
