1983 Girls Cross Country State Champion Oh What A Feeling!” Being a runner on the cross-country team was hard work. Practicing started at the beginning of August, and the team members practiced everyday after school for an hour to an hour and a half. Practice was important though if they wanted to survive and win the races. Races courses for the boys were three to three and a half miles while the girls ran one point eight to two miles. The hard work did not scare anyone away. In fact there were three times as many runners this year as there were two years ago. The team had grown from five to sixteen runners, and there was also a girl’s team of seven runners. All this hard work paid off-, both teams; did well in regionals: the boys placed fifth and Jeff Plank was sent to state. The girl’s team placed second in the region and went downstate where Kathy Plank became a State Champion. Their coaches, Howard Willimson and Vicki Hulette. played a large part in their success.
