HOLLY — The Bear Lake High School cross country team had a solid showing at the Nike-sponsored Holly Invitational on Saturday, featuring some of the best squads in the state.

The Laker boys and girls both finished third in their division, while Chuck Schoedel, Jaylee Brown and Tobi Schoedel all posted top-10 finishes.

“Everyone ran a great race,” said Bear Lake coach Eric Ross. “It went well. The kids did awesome.”

On top of winning team medals for third place, six of the seven Bear Lake boys and four of the seven Bear Lake girls medaled as individuals for finishing in the top 35. “To get a medal at Holly, you had to do something,” Ross said.
