2012 The Meadows Girls Cross Country Capsule

Head coach: Charles Bernick, ninth season

Returning letter winners: Four

Top athletes: Jeneke Heerema (So.), Bailey Gosse (So.), Krista Thompson (So.)

Outlook: The Mustangs return only four runners and are young with only three seniors on a 10-person roster.

Gosse and Heerema each won a state title in distance running in track, and Thompson placed sixth in the state cross country meet last year.

“There is a youth movement at The Meadows,” Bernick said.
