No, not the blizzard last week that has all our areas open for business for the holidays.
(But that is a good one.)
Instead, it was tiny Mayfield, led by state champion Madison Relyea, winning the Section II girls’ cross country championship last February, beating a field of rivals from schools with much larger enrollments. Remember the film about the small school in Indiana beating all the bigs to win the state basketball championship?
Think of Mayfield as “Hoosiers” on snow.
Well, we now have snow again and Relyea is back for her senior year. She and her Panther teammates will be strong favorites in every meet. But while skiing is among the handful of high school sports in the state that have been cleared to compete this winter, as of right now, championship events in all sports have been canceled. The focus will be limited to Section II rivals only.
