    Dustin Lee and Cole Manlove|Oct 31, 2013

    Well...another successful year of running, a little crying and nursing injuries along the way to bring another season to an end for the Pine Bluffs/Burns cross country team. All season long we were confident in the girls, led by our senior Austin Asay to repeat as state champs and we are so proud to say they did. But, when the race ended most people thought a young talented Wyoming Indian team had just upset the girls! After a few anxious moments we thought so too! Wyoming Indian's Charlene...

    What a great day of racing! Despite a cool windy afternoon the Pine Bluffs - Burns cross country team ran exceptionally well all around! In the junior high races Sara Love ran solo today and ran a great time for her longest race of the year. She earned a 14th place finish and is looking great going into the last week of the season.

It was fun to see all f...

  • Winning at 'Godzilla'

    Dustin Lee and Cole Manlove|Sep 26, 2013

    The Pine Bluffs/Burns cross country team took a Friday off and ran Saturday instead at the Jackalope Invite in Douglas. The girls Jr. High race started at 12:00 and boys Jr. High race followed. For the boys Tristen Zitek placed 6th and Tyler Norris placed 8th. Both had great races considering the heat and difficulty of the course. On the girls side of things it was a great day. The new course has earned the nickname of “Godzilla” from our team because it has some monstrous hills. That didn’t deter them from running a great race. Austin Asay...
