Lord Botetourt didn't have any top finishers in the region Cross Country meet. It was held yesterday at the Greenfield course in the shadow of the Botetourt Sports Complex, but they ran with some of the best runners in the state and finished well nonetheless. Micah Luedkte actually ran much of the race  with only one shoe! A team mate picked it up and brought it to him said LBHS Coach Pete Walton who along with assistant coach Kathryn Mills, busily walked Greenfield watching for the Cav's runners.

As host of the meet,  LBHS's Chuck Pound the AD had plenty of helpers like retired coach Jerry Wirtz and Larry Carter the retired AD on site and especially thanked Parks and Recreation at the end of the meet for all of their help. Hundreds of parents, grandparents and friends attended the meet.

Those who ran for LBHS on Wednesday were

Girls: Erin Turney, Sarah Hammer, Jessica Snead, Taylor Cline and Samantha Bailey

Boys: Michael Chesser, Brett Crocker, Mitch Willis, Bennett Witcher, Dylan Turnan, Micah Luedkte and tyler Barnett.
