In a field featuring 5 of the state's top 10 ranked teams, our boys ran a strong and strategic race finishing 4th at the Troy Regional and advanced to the state championship. This is our 3rd team trip to state in the past 4 seasons! Seniors Ben Stites (4th) and Max Hoffman (14th) finished among the top 16 individuals and won places on the awards podium. Evan Cramer ran one of the finest races of his career, Tanner Anthony followed close behind, and Cullen O'Brien completed the team scoring. Jonah Engelhardt and Adam Frankel will join them at this week's state competition. Our score of 111 won a comfortable 60-point margin over 5th place Valley View and was only 20 points out of 2nd place.
The girls field was equally difficult as 6 of Ohio's top 12 teams, and a total of 8 ranked schools, competed in the 16-team field. Our girls earned 7th, tying the best WHS finish since 2001. Terra Fortsythe, Katie Spray, and Whitley Elsass all had top 40 finishes. The girls finish the season as CHL, District, and Enquirer DII City Poll Champions! Moreover, a number of our top runners will return next fall hoping to build on this season's success.
