Cross Country: A Year To Remember Cross country for 1986 was a year to remember. Tallu- lah Falls fielded a Girls Cross Country team for the first time, and the boys team continued to improve against stiff competition in Region 8-A. The Girls Cross Country team, overcoming a series of nagging injuries, put it all together in the Region Meet and finished in third place, beating the Buford girls team by 20 points and only five points behind second place Athens Academy. Diania Rouse ran well throughout the season, with six finishes in the top six, a fifth place finish in the Region Meet, and an 1 1th place finish in the State Championship. Seniors Rhonda Gibson, Hara Kahn, and Cindy Johnson provided stability and leadership and consistently finished in the top 20. Freshmen Rebecca Batchelder, Rion Gaston, and Kelly Conner showed promise. Batchelder finished in the top 10 in four of five races, including ninth place in the Region. Gaston had two top 10 finishes and placed 11th in the Region. Highlights for the Boys Cross Country team included a victory in a tri-meet with Rabun County and White County, and a tie for fifth place among 14 schools competing in the Riverside Invitational Cross Country Meet. The boys team finished fourth in the Region Meet, only 13 points out of first place and 9 points out of second place. Individually, Chris Pic had an outstanding year, winning four of eight races and finishing second in the Region Meet and third in the State Championships. Courtney Stroud was the most improved runner on the team, with three second place finishes (behind Pic), a third place finish in the Region (he was 16th in 1985), and a 12th place in the State Championships. Senior Chris Bissell had a solid season, finishing in the top ten three times and the top 20 in six of seven races. Wylie Petty finished in the top 18 in six of seven races. Todd Besier battled through injuries to three top 20 performances. Shane Arrington and Rodney Gibson im- proved steadily in their first cross country season and should be valuable to the team in the future. Tallulah Falls hosted its first-ever home cross country meet in this season against Rabun Gap. Girls X-Country: (front row) Hara Kahn, Rebecca Batchelder. Kelly Con- ner.
