On a muddy Tuesday at Youthtowne, the OLSH girls cross country team captured the Section Title, led by junior Eva Crofford, who won the entire race and was crowned Section Champion with a time of 19:54. Crofford closed with a strong sprint to the finish.
All five OLSH scorers finished in the top 10. Senior Hannah Hayes placed 3rd in 20:02, followed by sophomore Jules Goshen in 4th at 20:10. Freshman Ellie Green finished 7th in 20:53, while senior Lindsay Bressler rounded out the scoring in 10th with a season-best 21:24.
The OLSH boys team placed 4th, led by junior Ethan Hankinson, who finished in 18:56 after a strong push to the finish. Freshman Grady Molinero, sophomore Derek Daniel, freshman Landon Bell, and junior Sidney McLaughlin followed in a tight pack to round out the team's scoring.
Congratulations to both teams on a strong showing at the Section Championships!
