On Saturday, September 6, Gowanda’s Cross Country team was at Bemus Point for the Red Dragon Invitational. Gowanda was one of 27 large and small schools attending the event.

Among the 10 small schools, the Gowanda girls finished 7th with a score of 138. The top team was Maple Grove with 43, CLV was in 10th place with 266. Among 91 runners, Gowanda had three girls in the top 25. They were Hayleigh Miller (15th), Raelyn Diebel (21st) and Alivia Richter (23rd).

The Gowanda boys competed as an incomplete team of only four runners, one short of the five needed to figure into the scoring. In a field of 67 runners in the boys race, Gowanda had one, Brendin Diebel, who made the Top 25 at 22nd Place. Gowanda’s Gabe Snyder finished in the top half in 31st Place.
