“This means the world,” said Stuckert. “I know how hard my freshman year team worked for that win.  We have less seniors this year. It’s crazy to think that we could do this with such a small team.”

 

Also, Savannah Dennison and Kylie Beucler qualified for states in the 800m and Ada Sabo qualified for states in the 1600m.

 

“It just means so much to me because being part of a team that could do this two years in a row is just phenomenal,” said Beucler. “I’m really proud of us.”

 

Added Berrow, “I just think doing this for the second time, it has only been done twice, just shows how hard our team works and how close we are.”
