Everly Drews finished in 14th, Summer Galonska finished in 17th, and Brielle Nash finished in 18th.
The boys team was able to win the entire meet, earning a first place plaque. Every single boy on our team was also a medalist! Wyatt Wenzel took first place with a strong sprint to the end, finishing with a time of 13:24. Henry Salowitz was the next runner for the boys team, taking 4th place and running a lifetime PR by 54 seconds. Ben Murphy took 6th place and Carson Kosanovich finished in 11th. Jaxson Penn, Jaden Bow, and Tanner Holmes finished 16th, 17th, and 18th for our team, helping solidify their first-place team victory.
