Cross country: Marcus boys, Flower Mound girls claim District 8-5A titles
BY JUSTIN THOMAS, jthomas@acnpapers.com
DENTON -- For the 19th time in program history, Marcus' boys cross country team competed in a district meet and returned to Flower Mound as champs.
Despite missing its original No.3 and No. 5 runners, the Marauders took first as a team Saturday at the District 8-5A Meet at North Lakes Park in Denton, finishing ahead of Hebron and Flower Mound. The Lady Jaguars, meanwhile, claimed the title on the girls side ahead of Hebron and Marcus.
The strength and competitiveness of what many believe to be the toughest cross country district in the state was on full display Saturday as just seven points separated the first and third-place teams on the boys side, while Flower Mound finished 14 points ahead of third-place Marcus.
