Cross Country (Boys & Girls)
Inside Out Coaching Initiative
Transformational Statement:
My purpose is to teach student-athletes commitment to a common goal, while growing in character, honor, faith, and integrity in life.
"Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us." Romans 5:3-5

Crean Lutheran cross country teams compete in new league
"And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up." Galations 6:9
Crean Lutheran High School’s cross country teams are competing in a new league this season.
The Saints have also adopted a new verse, which “is biblical wisdom for our athletes to consider and apply beyond the realm of cross country and athletics.” said Coach Robby Cherry.
“The 2024 Saints cross country program has been building something special this season as we transition into a new league setting,” the coach said.
“Coming off of a very successful season in 2023, where the girls team qualified for the post season with a third place finish at the Empire League finals, the girls team became even stronger this season with the addition of two impact freshman runners onto our varsity team.
“Ninth graders Catherine Ertel and Paige Jacob have helped our team gain depth and some front of the race power as they join all-league runner and captain Gwendolyn Mo (junior) and track and field standout Alexis Landrus (sophomore).
“Grace McGuff (12th grade, captain), Adelaide Hare (11th grade), Ava Booy (12th grade, captain), and Nadia Mino (10th grade) are returning varsity runners who have been working hard to help our girls team strive for the top of our new league this year.”
The boys squad also has experienced athletes leading the way.
“The boys program returns five varsity athletes from our team and is led by junior captain Luke Bremmer (2023 All-Empire League runner and CIF prelims individual qualifier),” Cherry said. “Luke Bremmer is a standout runner with incredible work ethic and potential.”
The other returning runners include Logan Stephens (12th grade, captain), August Sonsma (12th grade, captain), Daniel Pla (11th grade) and Nathan Lalonde (11th grade).”
The team has welcomed new runners 10th grader Logan Hill, 10th grader Cameron Rivas and ninth grader Aaron Chen
“The boys team has come a long way in the past few years with regard to their consistency and dedication in training,” Cherry said. “We are hoping that this improvement will translate to team successes and league finals and God willing a CIF playoff berth.”
