Meet Highlights: Carterville Beat the Heat
The lions started the 2025 season strong at Saturday’s home invite. On the girl’s side, Lane Sambursky got her first career win, finishing the three mile course in 19:32, with Lyla Seaman backing her up with a solid 3rd place finish. The girl’s team finished second by a single point, with strong performances all around. The boy’s team dominated the field to win by 24 points, led by August Anderson’s runner-up finish. Overall, the boys had 3 of the top 4 runners, and 6 of the top 12, with over half the team setting personal bests for the 3 mile distance. The lions look to build on their first race this Saturday, September 6th at the Carbondale invite at SIU.
