A season which ended at the Class AAAA state meet has resulted in individual recognition for members of the Winder-Barrow High School cross country program.

Amanda Cope was named first team All-Region 8-AAAA along with teammate Rebecca Gregory and Kalya Estes. Marie Lyle was named second team All-Region with Nicole Webb earning third team honors.



For the WBHS boys, Josh Timms and Luis Jimenez earned second team All-Region honors while Cary Hughes was named to the third team.

“We are very proud of our girls and boys team peformances,” said WBHS cross country coach Melissa Weinkle. “Both teams worked extremely hard throughout the season. To have five girls and three boys placed on the All-Region teams is quite an accomplishment.”

Both WBHS teams advanced to the state meet this fall in Carrollton. The Lady Bulldoggs were second at the Region 8-AAAA meet in Carrollton while the Bulldoggs were third. They qualified for state on the basis of those performances.

For Apalachee High School, Marquel Mosby was named second team All-Region for his efforts during the 2008 season. Mosby is coached by Bill Harrell.
