The Belvidere North Girls Cross Country team traveled to Kaneland High School last
Saturday morning to take on the Kaneland – Larry Eddington XC Invitational. The meet started
with the open race with the team taking 2nd overall in the open with finishes, 17th, 18th, 28th,
32nd, 37th, 40th, 51st, 72nd, 83rd, 84th, 86th, 95th, 101th, and 108th.

The team had a very
solid performance, and are looking good so far this season. The varsity team ran next with the
team finishing 9th overall, with a top performance of 17th from Junior: Alyssa Pryor. The rest of
the team finished with placements of 53rd, 54th, 75th, 76th, and 79th. The team is having a
pretty good season so far and are looking forward to finishing the season strong. The meet
finished with the fresh/soph race with the team finishing 4th overall. With placements of 8th,
20th,23rd,26th,41st, 68th and 70th. Looking forward to a very good future with these young
runners.

I interviewed runner Madison Lerner about the race and here’s what she had to say
about it “I am so glad I beat Lauren Key. Just Kidding! It was a very good competitive race and
was a good challenge. 10/10 would recommend.” The season is about midway through the and
the overall team looks very good so far and are looking for a nice end to the season with
conference coming up here very soon. The team is looking forward to it and sending some
runners to Regionals and hopefully Sectionals.
