VARSITY GIRL

Sophomore Lucy Alexander of Sautee Nacoochee was named an Indian of the Week by cross country coach Scott Neal. “Lucy ran a course best 23:10.9 to place 16th overall at the Area Cross Country championships,” Neal said. She then went on to lead the Lady Indians to a 12th place team finish while running 22:15, good enough for 36th place, at the state championships. Lucy cares deeply about the team, is engaged consistently and positively and came on very strong in the last weeks of the season. Her state performance was her best race ever from a strategic, mental toughness and inspirational point of view. Her record ranks No. 2 on the TFS Legacy List and her state time is a TFS best since the early 1990s.”  

VARSITY BOY

Sophomore Evan Prince of Demorest was selected as an Indian of the Week by cross country coach Scott Neal. “Evan earned All-State honors by running 16:53.55 to place fifth in Class A-Private,” said Neal. “He was only .17 second from fourth place. His time ranked 51st of 1463 runners from all classifications, which is the top three percent of all runners. Undeterred by the cold temperatures and tough conditions, the Indians placed ninth of the 16 state qualifying teams, which is a solid and noteworthy performance.”
