Hello, my name is Mitchell Cory and I am beyond excited to be a leader of such a great team! I first started running in second grade because my mom wanted me to and in hopes to add a new sport to my life. I think xc is such a great sport because it is you versus the people around you with no excuses, unlike in other sports where better equipment can be such a big advantage. I’m very excited to grow as a team and continue to be a part of the amazing culture already present. I look forward to competing and seeing how we perform in 2025.

Hello, my name is Ryan Fick. I decided to start running in 8th grade after hearing about how much my brother was enjoying highschool XC, and I quickly fell in love with the sport. I love XC because it allows me to see a direct reflection of the work I put in every day, and I’m able to put in that work alongside my closest friends. Outside of XC I’m involved in Track and Field, and enjoy playing ultimate frisbee and other games with teammates. I’m excited to continue growing the culture of this team while competing for a state title this fall!

Hi I’m Ronan. I started running in the fall of 5th grade. I enjoyed the idea of joining a team and getting faster. I quickly fell in love with the sport and let go of playing soccer. I love how it is an individual sport, but at the same time it was a huge team sport. Apart from running, I’m involved with Younglife. I’m very excited about next year, seeing how our team improves, and chasing our goals!

Hi, I’m Zach. I’ve been running since 7th grade cross country. Initially, running was a way for me to get out of the house during COVID. Over time, I began to truly love the competition and the spirit of our team. As a high school athlete I have learned the discipline and brotherhood of competition. I am excited to share our team’s culture and excellence with a new generation of athletes. I also look forward to the opportunity to chase a state title. On top of running year round, I participate in Brighton’s science olympiad program.  I value our team’s culture and I am excited to guide it into the future.
