House Divided: Two sisters to compete in state cross country meet

(TERRE HAUTE,  Ind. ) – Two sisters from Dearborn County have both qualified for the Indiana Middle School State Cross Country Championship. 

However, they won’t be wearing the same jersey. 

Ella Kearns is a 7th grader at St. Lawrence School and her younger sister, Lily, attends Greendale Middle School.

The Kearns sisters are not only competing for a top spot in state, but also for bragging rights at home! 

Their mother even has a custom t-shirt that she will be wearing when the girls compete in Terre Haute on Saturday.
