Harmony Runners/Parents

This is the headline and article that we are submitting to the Oldham Era this week.

Terkula sets course record for Boys Elementary 2K run at the North Oldham Rumble Through the Jungle Cross Country Meet

Harmony Elementary Boys finished third behind Goshen and Hite Elementary as David Terkula set a new course record time of 7:40.88 just ahead of a determined Trenton Fryman who ran a time of 7:43.03 for Goshen. This was Terkula's second straight win for Harmony as he captured the individual title at Shelby Invitational last weekend. Harmony's team got a spark by placing six runners in the top thirty-six and brought home ten of the fifty medals awarded in a field of one hundred and eighty one runners. Those runners were Connor Sullivan, Daniel Pennington, Jon Hines, Brandon Naber, Dylan Yates, Mark Scherer, Carter Falk, Quinten Cooper, and Mason Beard.

Harmony Elementary Girls had another strong showing as they took fourth place behind Goshen, Centerfield, and Kenwood Station. Harmony was led by tenth place finisher Erin Edmondson with a time of 8:59.12. The Harmony Girls like the boys brought home ten of the fifty medals awarded in a field of one hundred and sixty nine runners. Others placing in the top fifty were Christina Ausley, Brooke Hammons, Hannah Mosier, Jaclyn Ose, Grace Dieterle, Catherine Kaufman, Heather Wiley, Kaitlyn Hurley, and Kylie Dombrosky.

End of Article.

Many other Harmony runners did extremely well at the meet. Celine McClain showed a lot of heart in her 10:36.31 time. Trent Stigler just missed the top 50 and ran a solid 9:25.33 time. If Harmony runners continue their strong work ethic we will continue to improve as a team. We realize not everyone had their best day but as a team we really showed great improvement since the start of practice in early August!!

Harmony Elementary Cross Country Team Competes well at the Shelby Invitational

Harmony Elementary boys and girls competed well at the Shelby Invitational 1 Mile Cross Country Run over the Labor Day weekend. David Terkula started the season where he left off last season by winning the boys meet with a time of 6:23.49 and leading his team to a fifth place finish. Jonathon Hines, Dylan Yates, Alex McClarty, and Mason Beard rounded out the scoring for the Huskies. Probably the most amazing accomplishment was that the boys had two second graders and one third grader as scorers in a race that included sixth graders. An injured Mark Scherer showed the heart of a champion and Carter Falk, a new comer, gives this young team a bright future.

The Harmony girls were led by an outstanding performance in Erin Edmondson who finished the 1 mile run with a time of 7:17.80 and leading her team to a fourth place finish. Other scorers for the girls were Christina Ausley, Brooke Hammons, Hannah Mosier, and Kaitlyn Hurley. The girls like the boys are young with two third graders and one fourth grader scoring for the team. Other strong performances were turned in by Jaclyn Ose, Catherine Kaufman, Heather Wiley, and Grace Dieterle. The Harmony Cross Country team is definitely a team to watch.
