The Cross Country season is over. Although many of us were disappointed by our 12th place finish, I think that there is nothing we should be ashamed of. We tried our very hardest, and on the day that it mattered, it just didn't work out. Special mention to Sean Hardy for gutting out the last two miles missing a shoe. With the setbacks that we suffered late in the season, we should be proud of qualifying for state. Only the best make it down. I will never forget my time on the NCHS team and I would like to thank all the other seniors and captains who made it so memorable. Never be afraid to dream big; only those who dare to fail ever succeed.
