With a high heat index, and nearly 3.5-mile course, the Iola High cross country team did not let the odds stack against them.
The varsity boys came away with a first-place finish for the second consecutive week, and the girls followed with silver just behind Anderson County.
The Mustangs were led by Jack Adams, who finished first with a time of 20:01 to stay perfect on the season. Every Mustang runner finished in the top 15, with Kaster Trabuc in ninth (21:41), Elijah Fawson 10th (21:59), Nathan Louk 13th (22:22), Jesse Taylor 14th (22:40), and Riley Jay 15th (22:46).
