The Shaker Girls Cross Country Team represents Shaker High School in Latham, NY. We are faster, stronger, and better as a team than we are as individuals.

Yes, pure perseverance and amazing effort from Leonni Griffin at the Grout Run in Schenectady! Truly impressive!!

[Carson Gambaro @carson_gambaro]

From the SAT to the start line. Zero warmup. One minute to make up. Two mid-race falls.

Yet, Leonni Griffin still passed 71 girls in yesterday's large school heat. She climbed to 3rd in Division 1, helping @GxcShaker win the team title at Grout.

Pure perseverance. @MileSplitNY
