The Saline High School boys and girls cross country teams have unofficially started the 2025 season with the time trials, held Friday at Saline High School.
The Hornets expect big things after the boys and girls teams both finished second at the state meet last year.
This year's time trials were on a 5K course at the high school, where the Hornets open the season Friday.

I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
Patchy rain nearby, with a high of 47 and low of 31 degrees. Sunny in the morning, patchy rain nearby in the afternoon, light snow during the evening, clear overnight.
