The 2022 Big 8 Championships saw 11 teams compete at the meet for the first time as Sun Prairie has split into Sun Prairie East & West. The boys toed the line for the final competition of the season for our JV runners. The weather was frigid as we woke to frost and below freezing wind chills. The sun helped warm up the day but most of the races were completed still in the 30 - 40's temperature wise. Sheehan Park provides a nice challenge and our boys rose to the challenge. The varsity started the day with a 9th place finish, followed by our JV1 team taking 5th place, and capped by our best finish of the day as our JV2 took 4th place. Our season saw many ups and downs and our team persevered through them all to make it to this day. Many lifetime PRs were achieved, multiple memories were created, and future goals have been planted. Today we saw AJ earn All-Conference honors with his 8th place finish in varsity. Jack C & Fred S both earned lifetime PRs with their performances. Tommy S returned to competition to earn a top 10 finish in the JV2 race. Our varsity was led by seniors AJ, Alvaro, & Jack G but we have a strong talented group of underclassmen ready to take the reigns for the next season. In the meantime, our varsity prepares for Sectionals at DeForest and a chance to compete at the state meet.
