El Dorado ready for conference meet

El Dorado’s cross country teams will head to Hot Springs today to compete in the conference cross country meet, which will be hosted by Hot Springs Lakeside at Essex Golf Course.

The race is scheduled to begin at 3:30 p.m. There will be no spectators allowed.

This is the first year both senior high and junior high teams will compete in the same meet.

“The varsity boys are sitting in the third position right now,” said Coach John Koonce.

“We may have to hold one of our key runners out of the race so we will have to fight for that third spot.

“The varsity girls should come in fourth. The junior boys are sitting at third. The junior girls are also sitting at third, but we may be able to snag the runner up trophy if we run well.”
