Shawn Wilson plyed Futbol (soccer) for his first 2 years at Cherokeee HS and then decided to give Cross Country a shot last year. To say he had instant success is a bit of an understatement. Wilson won his first 3 races and went on to finish no lower than second until the Meet of Champions where he took 5th in the astounding time of 15:45. Wilson comes back as the #2 returner to the the MOC.
Last week, Shawn took some time to talk about his rookie XC season, his training and Star Wars.
