After a strong first showing at the Upper Sandusky Icebreaker Invitational meet last Tuesday, the Bluffton High School Cross Country teams didn't disappoint.
The Saturday meet began with the girls' race. It was a perfect day to run: 65 degrees and sunny. At 9:00, 117girls from the area crowded onto the Delphos football field and leaned over the line, waiting for the gun to sound.
Bluffton High School's girls tennis team won its second straight match Wednesday afternoon by edging Tiffin Calvert 3-2 in Tiffin. Emily Sprague won in straight sets at No. 1 singles and both doubles units won in straight sets.
The No. 1 doubles team of Ashlin Gable and Kristi Geiser shut out their opponents, 6-0, 6-0, while Liz Diller and Shaye Liddick won 6-0, 6-3. Shannon Koch and Jess Hunter lost close matches at the other singles slots. The girls compete in the Lima Invitational Saturday.
