  The Atlanta Track Club recognized Landmark girls cross country team runners Kathryn Foreman and Lindy Long at their annual banquet held at the Westminster School in Atlanta on December 5. Landmark Christian School freshman Kathryn Foreman and senior Lindy Long were both honored as the 2012 Outstanding Cross Country Women of the Year. This is the fourth consecutive year that Lindy has held this honor, which comes on the heels of Landmark's recent cross country state championship. This is the seventh state championship for the Lady War Eagles in the past ten years. Both young ladies, and coaches Bill Thorn and Martha Akin, were named to the 2012 All-Metro High School Cross Country Team. __________ Congratulations to the JV girls basketball team who defeated Fayette High on December 3. Eighth grader Joy Stucker had an incredible night with a game high 37 points! Way to go Lady War Eagles!!! ____________ Congratulations to junior Morgan McWilliams, sophomore Ginny Hearn, and freshman Kali Tibbetts for receiving All-Region Honors for softball this year! Morgan received All-Region Honorable Mention honors, and Ginny and Kali were voted onto the All-Region First Team. Great job ladies! ____________ 
Junior Landmark cheerleader Madison Smith was also selected as UCA All American cheerleaders this summer at UCA camp in Destin, Fl. Although she will be unable to attend, her selection earned her an invitation to cheer in London over the News Year's holiday. Congratulations Madison!

Landmark's middle school cheer team traveled to Duluth this past Sunday to compete in the Cheersport Grand Championships. This event hosted over 100 cheerleading teams from across the Southeast in a one-day event at the Gwinnett Arena. The Landmark Middle School Cheerleading team competed in the middle school Level 3 division and won FIRST place!! The girls received a trophy for the school, individual first place medals, and a Grand Champions banner.
 The squad also got an opportunity to "stunt" with the Peachtree City Fire Department on last Saturday. The Peachtree City fire department was out spreading the word about fire safety when "Santa" noticed the Landmark cheerleaders practicing for that Sunday's cheer competition and asked if he could have a picture with them!
