Photo Gallery: Girl’s Cross Country Districts
Coach Woodard gives the 7 varsity runners a motivational talk before they head to the starting line.
Girls varsity cross country had their district meet in Washington, MO on Saturday, October 24. The meet ended the season for the Kirkwood girls due to none of them placing in the top 30 which would have advanced them. Molly Hooks, junior, who placed 32nd in the race had mixed emotions afterwards. “I felt a little disappointed that I barely missed qualifying for sectionals, but I was happy that everybody on the team gave it their best shot and we ended the season in a positive way.”

"A friend of mine's son was sick, and we knew he wasn't going to make it. I made a handful of these little smiles, [and gave it to the family.] I said maybe you can hold on to [them] until you get your smile back. [The family] said 'it would be very selfish if I didn't tell you to do this for other people.'"
