As the Red Wolves prepare for the conference tournament, Rusch talked about how cohesive the team is becoming.
“That chemistry keeps continuing so as the season keeps progressing and we go into the post-season we hope to (continue getting better) and make it as far as we can,” said Rusch.
The Red Wolves return to the track on Tuesday as they host a home meet with Cornerstone Christian, Garrett Morgan, and Lake Ridge Academy.
