Putnam City North Invitational
The Jays did not run Ogan, Cates, Sallee, or Cross at the Putnam City North Invitational, but plenty of runners went against solid competition.
Beery was the top placer for the Jays when he came across in fourth place. Other runners for Guthrie included: Evan Watts, Leroy Unruh, Taylor Self, Kyle Owens, Sean Harvey, Lex Dorio, Michael Gunther, Jayke Eggelston, Preston Milner, and Jay Kuruvilla.
Lauren Toney, Katelyn Hinkle, and Lauren Hoag ran their first race of the season at the PC North meet.
Next up for the varsity will be the very popular Cowboy Jamboree, Saturday, in Stillwater.
