On Sunday, November 1, the Mater Christi School boys and girls cross country teams traveled to Thetford Academy for the 2020 Vermont Middle School State Cross Country Championships. The girls team ended their impressive season with a first-place finish and a Vermont State Cross Country Championship trophy, and the boys team had a great day of running!
