LHS Boys XC wins SWC Championship

[Michael Deneen]

Congratulations to Head Coach Stephanie Toole and her LHS boys cross country team.
They accomplished one of their major goals this morning by winning the Southwest Conference Championship at LCCC.

Coach Toole is a longtime advocate for Lakewood's kids, particularly on the issue of adding outdoor basketball hoops. She is a great coach and role model to her kids.
There will be much more on this in the next print edition.

Shameless bump but I want to acknowledge the contribution Coach Toole has made to not only the high school cross country program, but to the promotion of active lifestyles in our community. Thanks Coach Toole for representing the best of what our community is all about.
