LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — Two seniors at Summit Christian Academy in Lexington have achieved something unprecedented for their school – both were named top cross country runners by the Kentucky Christian Athletic Association.

Mason Graham and Jesse Simmons, both seniors at the private school, were honored as Miss Cross Country and Mr. Cross Country respectively by the KCAA, marking the first time Summit Christian has had athletes win these top awards.

"I've done this since second grade and this is like the ending to a story. It's an ending to a chapter for me," Graham said.

The achievement is particularly impressive given Summit Christian's senior class size of just 10 students.

"I never imagined being in this position, so when it happened, it was just like overwhelming," Simmons said.
