Races Run - Records Broken - Champions Crowned

The following was swiped from the Run Wyoming blog by Coach Glendenning.

 

We had two fantastic performances yesterday in the wind, rain, and mud at Voice of America Park as both the boys and girls claimed district championships.  This was the second district title sweep in school history.  You can view the full results at Finish Timing.

The boys raced first and placed all 7 runners in the top 15, easily earning a fourth consecutive district championship with a new DII district record low score of 19 (breaking our own 2011 scoring mark of 22).  Ben Stites took individual honors, followed by runner-up Ian Goertzen.

Later, the girls knocked off #1 seed McNicholas to also take the gold trophy.  The girls had their best race of the season on the biggest stage.  Terra Forsythe, Katie Spray, Whitley Elsass, and Margaret Manley all finished in the top 10, and our 5-7 runners provided a key advantage, displacing the final McNicholas scorers.

Congratulations to all our athletes on a fine day!
