GCL Results....Week Eight Update
The GCL South Cross Country Championships (combined with the GGCL and CHL in the afternoon) were held Saturday, October 17th, 2020 at the Christ’s Church Mason in Mason, Ohio...home to Moeller’s “Primetime” Invitational Meet as well.   On behalf of everyone associated with Moeller Cross Country and the GCL/GGCL and CHL, we want to thank Christ’s Church Mason for once again allowing us to use their grounds for our league meets.   It’s a great venue, and we greatly appreciate their hospitality. Thank you again!!
