Bronco times improve at Malcolm

Posted

Times improved for the Centennial cross country runners at both meets last week.

Madison Brandenburgh ran a season-best time of 22:39 and finished 13th.

“It has been several years since we have had a girl place at that meet,” Coach Rob Johansen said. “It was this time last year in which her times really started to drop so we are hoping that happens again this year.”

Clinton Turnbull cut 30 seconds from his time last year, and Garrison Schernikau ran his personal best for the season.

Turnbull improved even more Sept. 24 at Thayer Central when he placed ninth in 18:15. Schernikau and Brandenburgh also tied their best times.

“Our kids are running at a high level right now, but at the end of the race yesterday, they looked and felt pretty awful,” Johansen said.

The Broncos were to run at UNK Sept. 28 and Raymond Central Thursday, Oct. 1.
