RAWLINS -- What was supposed to be a rebuilding year for the Rawlins cross country team has started out as more than that.

"We're building our program pretty good this year. We have 10 more kids than we've ever had before," head coach Hayden Hohnholt said. "The offseason is where you build championships. Our kids have done a great job of getting together in the summertime and they've come in with a really good base. Now we can just finetune that to get better throughout the year."

The Wyoming Invite that kicked off the season saw the girls place 13th of 17 teams and the boys take 11th of 23.

In that Cheyenne meet, Jamie Dirck and Lauren Linn led the Outlaw pack with 41st- and 45th-place finishes of 22 minutes, 30.98 seconds and 22:36.64, respectively. Faith Fischer finished in 24:08.25
