The Lady Apaches competed in their one and only home meet of the season Tuesday evening at the Apache Invite. The girls toed the line with Northfield and Whitko runners, preparing to take on the physically draining and mentally tough course that they run on each day. The girls were ready to race. And because of their efforts, the girls ran quick on the course, with 6 of the girls placing in the top 10. Not only did the Apaches race with speed, they set their intentions to race with heart. Because of this, the girls brought home the first trophy in over a decade for the Wabash Girls High School team!
