The Tuscarora High School Cross Country team recently competed in the 3A State Championships. They managed to place 10th which qualifies for Tuscarora history for being the highest a Tuscarora XC team has placed. Jeff Young posted an exceptional time of 17:47.04. The Titans had 4 runners who finished in the top 100 of the race. Their total score was score was 268 (if your wondering the first place score was 87) . “we have a group of young men and women who bought in” said Mr.Churan. A few runners who are worthy of mention are Nicholas Hilderbrandt, who came in 61st, and Nate Usher who came in 89th place. Although the boys may have gained a lot of attention a member of the girls cross country team named Norah Jarrahi also deserves a shoutout. She was the only girl from tuscarora to make it to the championships, she placed 51st. Her coach Mr.Babb said “ she has great work ethic and her skill sets learned in different sports attributed to her being able to perform the way she does.”
