Scotty harriers open in Billings
By Mike Brandt
They may have been out-classed, but it was a good
Cross Country meet to open the 2019 season. Glasgow
participated in the Billings Invitational that had Class AA
and A teams running in the meet along with a few Class B
and C programs.
The Scotties went up against teams from the three
Billings AA squads as well as the Helena scores and
Dickinson, N.D. There were four other schools from the
Class B ranks: Colstrip, Lodge Grass, Red Lodge and St.
Labre.
Opening against the bigger schools actually was what
longtime Glasgow coach Rod Karst was looking for to open
the season.
“We had great competition,” said Karst. “There were
over 600 kids running. It was fun to watch our kids.”
“I think it helped a lot,” said senior Wilson Overby. “It
lets us know where we are at. The competition will help us
because we have so many small meets. “
Glasgow finished 16th out of 21 teams. The Scotties
scored 384 points with Dickinson winning the meet with
104 points.
“After seeing the kids on Friday, we are happy with
them,” said Karst. “The boys did pretty well. We have ways to
go. We’re going to be more competitive than we anticipated.”
Of course the times are not where the kids or the
coaches’ want, which will come later in the season, more
towards the state meet.
Last year’s team MVP Wilson Overby led the Scotties,
placing 19th with a time of 17 minutes.
“I think I did really well,” said the senior. “It was a really
good meet.”
