Top-rated Lady Hawks edge out two-time State Champion Central Elkader on Warriors’ home course

The Kee cross country teams had their busiest week of the season, competing in a pair of meets within three days of one another. One of those meets was likely the largest the Hawks will compete in during the regular season, the Starmont Invitational Tuesday, September 12, where the Kee girls slipped to fifth place out of 18 teams with a squad not quite at full strength, and the Kee boys placed 16th out of 19 squads. The Hawks then took part in the Central Elkader Invitational Thursday, September 14, the Lady Hawks returning to full strength to claim their third meet title in five chances so far this season and the Kee boys finishing in third place.

The Hawks were next scheduled to compete at the Waukon Invitational Tuesday, September 19. Kee will then participate in the Jesup Invitational Tuesday, September 26.
