Saline's cross country teams won two races at the Fall Preview at Huron Meadows Metropark Thursday.
The Hornets entered teams in the girls 3200 and boys 3200 events and won both.
In the boys' race, junior Samuel Jackson won in the first race of his career. He completed the course in 11:15.8 - almost 25 seconds faster than the second-place runner. Saline then placed six straight runners, from 5th to 10th place. Jack Zaske, Josiah Koch, Dominik White and Gregor Morton completed the scoring for Saline. Christian Rice and William Rosales completed that Hornet run.
Saline finished with 23 points - 39 better than second-place Woodhaven.
In the girls' race, Kaylie Livingston of Whitmore Lake finished first in 12:01.1. She was followed in by six straight freshman Hornets, led by Mackenzie Sellenraad (12:33.6). That 2-7 sweep also included, in order, Sienna Snyder, Grace Roth, Abby Roth, Cora Conley and Corynn Gady.

Did they announce if they’re doing the 1 mile run down Michigan avenue?
If this mileage passes, has the City of Saline, for example, committed to reduce their millage by 2.0 that they no longer
need to send to the Fire Department?
It should be stated that this mileage is going to raise the taxes for many homes by $800 per year (based on a $250K SEV). There has been no commitment that the 2.0 mil that currently exists will be replaced even though it is alluded to. That is a huge increase.
The Fire Dept. likely does have unmet needs. We have been in meetings where the Fire Chief has spoken and our impression has been that he is not fully transparent, massaging information to present a case to achieve what he wants rather than solidly and transparently defining reality and options.
