ABOUT THE TEAM
As the seniors handled their business, there’s also much to look forward to with the underclassmen moving through the program. Carroll sophomore Reed Brown led the way for the Dragons this season. After a stellar freshman campaign in 2013, the sophomore ended the 2014 season finishing seventh out of 149 in the state meet. Junior Kayli Jones also put it all together this season, improving in 2014, never finishing over 19 minutes in the 5000 meter. With this type of talent left in the fold, there’s no telling what could come for the Dragons next season.
The 2014 cross country season was a great season and one that was fun to be a part of. This year the word team really comes to mind when describing it. The boys and girls really persevered throughout the season and were able to reach numerous goals along the way. We are really proud of this senior class and the legacy they have left behind for future classes to follow.” - Head Coach Justin Leonard
