Wednesday, March 3, 2021 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon City to replace waterlines in alley Cross-country teams ready for racing By Charlie Kanzig Correspondent The long wait is over for the Sisters High School cross country teams; they have offi- cial meets on the schedule for the first time in months and are ready to test their training. A strong core of experi- enced runners return for the Outlaws and they look ready to make the most of the short- ened season offered up by the OSAA during this pandemic- impacted year. On the boys team, seniors Ethan Hosang, Will Thorsett, John Peckham, Sam May, Vicente Rebolledo, along with junior Max Palanuk, return from a team that came within seconds of the state championship in November 2019. Peckham is the reign- ing state champion for 4A and Thorsett finished a close third, which clearly indi- cates an exceptional one-two punch up front. Added to that strength is a resurgent Hosang, who ran shoulder-to- shoulder with his two team- mates in unofficial races dur- ing the fall.
