Cross Country Comes to an End with a Bright Future

By Bri Roe
As cross country comes to a close, Mr. Longus would like to share few words with our community about our seniors that are leaving this spring and to the incoming freshman next year. Here is some advice that Mr. Longus has for the seniors, “Try and continue to stay physically fit in whatever activity you chose it just helps you stay healthy and allows you to eat whatever you want.” Mr. Longus will miss the seniors leaving this spring very dearly. They allowed him to be able to take part in coaching them by getting this program started three years ago so Clarksville was able to have one. They were a part of Mr. Longus’s first cross country team here at Clarksville. They have brought Mr. Longus many memories and he encourages the freshman for next year to look into cross country even if you don’t think that you are a long distance runner. Mr. Longus says, “We are always looking to increase the number of athletes for cross country. We have a good base of athletes and we would like to increase the numbers of runners we have."
