KR4 Team Visits Local Georgia School to Present Anti-Bullying Program

SPARTA, GA, March 26, 2017- On Sunday, the forecast for rain held off for the round three of the Amsoil Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) series. This made for humid and dusty conditions on the track.   Tayla Jones captured her third consecutive WXC win! Tayla had a small crash on the last lap, but not enough to cause her problems, as shown by her 4 minute gap behind Mullins who was the overall leader. Tayla said on the podium that she's been "trying to take things one race at a time" and so far it seems to be a winning strategy for her.
