Thorson named Academic All Stater, race time corrected

Turner Thorson, an IHS senior, was one of three Tiger boys at the recent state cross country meet in Huron.

Turner's time was incorrectly printed as 18:50.58. The correct time was 18:15.58. He placed 23rd barely behind the other two IHS boys in the race, Dylan Wald and Xavier Kadlec.

The boys' team finished fourth in the State B team standings, thanks to that trio of Tiger boys finishing so close together throughout the race.

Turner has also recently been named a South Dakota Academic All Stater. To be eligible for that honor you need to be a senior who has participated in a particular sport for at least three years along with the academic criteria.
