Mahomet Seymour High School

The Mahomet-Seymour High School Boys Cross Country team competed in the East Peoria Invitational at Illinois Central College on Saturday 12 schools competed in the meet, with 10 of those schools bringing complete teams (5 or more runners). There was a varsity race and a junior varsity race. We put all our runners in the varsity race. The team placed 1st. This is our first time winning the meet since 2017. Mahomet-Seymour won with 35 points, Morton placed 2nd with 36 points, and Normal (University) placed 3rd with 92 points. Our scorers today were junior Auggie Gaudio, junior Henry McMurry, senior Lukas Nykaza, senior Kaleb Kasper, and sophomore Tate Bode. Top 20 medal. We had 7 medalists.
