Way to Go, Nate!

Nate Rue represented Como Park well at the MSHSL State Cross Country Meet today, placing 34th out of 156 in the AA Boys race. He was the first Como Park Boy to compete at state in recent memory. Nate went out strong with a 5:01 first mile that put him in about 25th place, struggled a little bit in the last mile, but finished hard. He overcame some health issues early in the season to put together a very strong senior season. Congrats, Nate!
