Ella has had a very impressive season in her first year on the cross country team. She has pushed herself in practice, often choosing to run extra laps and train with teammates in higher grade levels. Her dedication has helped her come very close to a top ten finish in her very first season. Ella also brings an enthusiastic attitude to practice every day, lifting the spirits of those around her. In addition to her athletic accomplishments, she has started the year with excellent grades in the classroom. Ella has a great attitude and is always willing to help her classmates.
