Riverside Cross Country runners Laci Orcutt and Hayden Daugherty competed in the Big 7 League Cross Country Championships on Thursday at the Hiawatha Country Club. Although a bit windy, it was a beautiful day to run against some good competition. Laci's race was first and it was her first race back, coming off a patellar tendon injury. She competed very well until about 2 miles into the race and was unable to finish when her knee flared up again. It was a pretty difficult thing for her and myself as a coach, to have her work as hard as she does and love the sport as much as she does, just to have this injury happen and then recur.
Our male athlete, Hayden Daugherty, then competed in the combined jv/varsity race, placing in the top 30 varsity runners and 4th as a jv entry, earning himself a medal and running a new personal best. His time of 20:06 was a 2 minute improvement over our last race on this course back in September and almost a 45 second improvement overall this year. With 2 races left, he's doing very well this season and we hope to close things out well at Jackson Heights (Tuesday) and Alma on Saturday.

Riverside HOSA (Future Health Professionals, formerly Health Occupation Students of America) members attended the annual state fall conference held in Topeka Wednesday. It was a great time to learn about different professions, visit with colleges and recruiters and learn more about the competitive events being held at the spring conference. There were over 300 students and advisors in attendance along with state leaders and professionals from hospitals and treatment facilities around the state. It was a fun and informative time for these students who are planning to pursue health professions as a career. The conferences and HOSA are great assets to developing and implementing our health science curriculum and challenge the students to develop critical thinking skills as well as provide real life, hands-on situations for them to learn in.
