For the last 44 years, cross country racers have taken to the woods, the mud, the course at Catherine Creek. Bringing in hundreds of runners this 45th year, the finishers crossed the line muddy, tired and completing one of the tougher courses on the Oregon high school circuit.

As the cross country season begins to really pick up, Enterprise appears the team to beat. The Outlaws finished the Catherine Creek course with team titles in both the boys’ and girls’ divisions. The Outlaws are comprised of athletes from Enterprise, Joseph, and Wallowa.

Helping out the Outlaws, Ellyse Tingelstad led the girls with a time of 21 minutes, 40 seconds and a first place showing. Also placing first was Enterprise sophomore Henry Coughlan in the first flight of the boys’ race. Coughlan posted a time of 17:11.
