An excellent performance by the Varsity squads that traveled to the VVS Invitational over the weekend! The girls raced first and put on a great showing, led by Val and Amanda coming from behind to finish 1-3. Alaina and Sarah also picked their way through the crowd during the last 2+ miles. Katie held on as our 5th girl, to secure a third-place finish for the team, behind a surprisingly tight R-H pack and highly-regarded Guilderland team.
The boys came close to repeating that performance in their race, with an excellent team effort. Will and Justin worked together for much of the race to finish 17 and 22. Alex and John were the next mini-pack and worked their way up to 33 and 35. The next pairing was Tristan and Ethan; Tristan made a late surge to place 43rd and the team grabbed 4th place!
Another exciting accomplishment by the girls was capturing 21st place in the merge of all 7 races from the day. That's a great performance, considering there were 20 teams competing that were ranked in the pre-season rankings on Tullyrunners.
Complete results from the day are available at Leone Timing.
