The Falcons opened their season on Aug. 27 with a multi-team Colonial League meet at Saucon Valley. The Falcon teams both went 0-3 in the opener, unable to earn a team score with just four runners in the line up.

Tenzer (34th), Lausch (41st) and Samantha Conrad (46th) also competed for the Salisbury girls team, which was one runners short of being able to score as a team at the meet.
