The Goessel cross country boys' team finished in a tie for fourth place at the Marion meet held last Thursday at Marion County Lake.
All five boys ran in the varsity event and finished in a new order with Peter Goerzen leading the way for Goessel, followed by Jeremy Voth, Kent Peters, Lance Hiebert, and Evan Fast.
The girls' race put all the girls in the same race and Goessel's competitors were participating in the junior varsity division. Several varsity runners were in between the Goessel runners, and it wasn't until the results were announced that the team realized that Goessel finished first, second, and third in the junior varsity event.
Jennifer Schmidt, Linessa Duerksen, and Theresia Hoelzl finished in that order for the Bluebird team.
The cross country team will compete today in the Berean Invitational at Harvey County East Park.
