For the last four years now, one of the most constant aspects of the fall high school athletic season in the Morris Daily Herald readership area has been the Minooka cross country team. Top runners have come and gone since 2008, yet the Indians still remain a state force when it comes to distance running.

This year is no different. Someone new is always seemingly stepping up to fill a void for the locals. As the Indians enter their "championship season" phase, Minooka has another senior stepping up who wants to be counted.

That person is Cam Knudsen.
