The Washington Demons will run their conference cross country meet tonight.

The Demons travel down to Ft. Madison to compete with the other teams from the conference.

Demons head coach Steve Roth says Ft. Madison is a good team, and to run at home makes them even better, so the goal for Washington to go out and run their race.

“It’s more mental now, we know Ft. Madison is an outstanding team, they’ll score under 20 points, our key is just to try and get two or three conference place winners in there, top seven are all conference, so we want to try and get some in there,” Roth said. “We’ve been working hard at that mentally, we’ve brought some people in to talk to the kids, and they know it’s going to hurt at the end, and that’s just the nature of the beast.”

Washington runs at 5:00 P.M.
