With many days of practice behind them and a significant boost in their numbers, the Pleasantville boys’ and girls’ cross country teams officially begin their season today with a meet at Wayne. The Trojans will be in attendance with several other conference schools, and Coach Aaron Fichter says his team has a chance to be pretty competitive in the Pride of Iowa this year. Fichter says a good measuring stick will be to see how they race against Nodaway Valley at various meets this season. The Wolverines, however, will not be at today’s meet in Wayne, which is scheduled to begin at 5:00 p.m.
