Wind Blown in Rawlins

The Saratoga Panthers ran among the sagebrush at the Rochelle Ranch Golf Course in Rawlins, Wyoming on Friday, September 13.

The wind off of the highway did not seem to stop both the middle school and high school runners from competing well.

“The kids had a great week of practice and showed a little more competitiveness as a whole, at the Rawlins Invite,” said Coach Rex Hohnholt.
