| Cross Country Report: Our cross-country team put in another great performance at the Dairyland Conference meet in Augusta. In spite of having 4 runners out sick, six of our Lancers set new personal bests, and our boys managed to bring home the Dairyland Conference Champion trophy for the second year in a row! Congratulations to our Lancers for their hard work all season long that led up to this, and especially to our all-conference athletes: Logan Thompson (1st place, conference champion), Dulton Eberhardt (6th), Simeon Schaller (8th), Caleb Eichstadt (9th), and Lydia Kloke (9th). A special THANK YOU to all the fans who came out to cheer on our Lancers! Complete results are available at https://milesplit.live/ |

The comet is now racing away from the sun and Earth, today reaching over 60 million miles distant, but it’s higher position in the sky gives you more time to find it, and with mountains, trees and buildings no longer in the way. This evening, the comet will be visible high above the western horizon about 45 minutes after sunset, setting around two hours 25 minutes later. That’s means it will be in the sky for about 15 minutes longer than on Thursday.
Look west for bright Venus above the southwest and Arcturus above west-northwest, the latter a bright, twinkling, reddish star at the bottom of the Y-shaped constellation Boötes. It’s hard to mistake. The comet will be above a point roughly halfway between them, making a triangle shape — or a coat-hanger with comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS as the hook.
A 96.4%-illuminated waning gibbous moon will rise while you look for the comet, so take the time to swivel 180 degrees to watch it rise in the east draped in orangey hues. A beautiful sight!
Although both the comet and the rising near-full moon can be seen with the naked eye, any pair of binoculars will give you a superb view. (www.forbes.com)
