Coach Justin Stigge times the cross country players as they swim Aug. 24 in the Pool. Due to an extreme increase of hot weather during the week of Aug. 20 to Aug. 26, sports teams were forbidden by state law from practicing outdoors in the afternoon. “The number one reason for practicing in the pool is because it’s way better for our legs than running in the building,” Stigge said.
