The Republic girls cross country team has never been hotter than it is right now. That’s because the team has qualified four individual runners for the state meet this Friday in Columbia. Miha Nambara, Gracie Troester, Kristin Probst, and Misora Nambara will all represent Republic when the starting gun fires at noon at the Gans Creek Cross Country Course. It’s the most runners ever for a Republic cross country team at the state meet. And the team barely missed qualifying as a group, losing out on a tiebreaker after tying with two other teams for third place.
In addition to the four girls competing at state, Ethan Haynes will be representing the boys team at state. He’ll run at 11:15 a.m.
