Lakewood HS Cross Country

Lakewood Cross Country Boys and Girls Varsity, JV, and open runners ran at the 2007 Avon Lake Earlybird Invitational held at Lorain County Community College Saturday 9/1/07. Due to scheduling confusion, both the Boys and Girls Varsity teams were not able to run in their correct races. As a result, both had to run in the Open category. Some Lkwd runners did not wear numbers resulting in no official times.

Joe your photos are wonderful!

Hope everyone gets a chance to check out the 'LOCKER ROOM' section in Plain Dealer for Thursday Sept. 6th. Dee's story is the cover story and there is a two page article on him. The front page photo is great. He is such an incredible young man.

Here is the link to the story...
