RegionalsFollowing the conference meet, the post season begins with the regional meet. The top six teams from each regional advance to the sectional, there are seven teams in each sectional. The eagles competed at Lake Storey park in Galesburg. The boys finished fifth as a team following the lead of Dane Tow, who finished sixth in a time of 17:41. The boys one-to-five split was one minute and thirty-eight seconds. The boys would have competed better if I was not missing due the a stress reaction I acquired the week before. I will not be competing the rest of the season due to this injury. Max Varness, who was second at the boys regional. The girls finished third as a team following the lead of Abby Johnson, who finished ninth in a time of 20:32. Their one-to-five split was one minute and fifty seconds. The girls would have won the meet, but they did not race their top three girls because they wanted to save their legs for next weeks sectional race. SectionalsThe next week, both teams competed at the sectionals and the top five teams from each sectional advance to state, there are seventeen teams at each sectional. The boys finished eleventh following the lead of Max Varness, who finished in a time of 16:40. The boys one-to-five split was fifty-three seconds. The boys did not advance to state meaning the sectional meet was the end of their season. Max Varness leading the boys at sectionals The girls tied for fifth as a team following the lead of Macy Priess, who finished ninth in a time of 18:40. The girls one-to-five split was one minute and eight seconds. The girls barely made it to state by tying with metamora, but advanced and will compete the next week at state. StateThe girls competed well at state finishing eighteenth, following the lead of Macy Priess, who finished twenty-fourth in a time of 17:57. The top twenty-five runners are considered all-state runners which means Macy received that honor which is very impressive considering she is a sophomore. The girls one-to-five split was one minute and forty-four seconds. That was the last race of the girls cross country season. TrackThe rest of the posts for this blog will be about track considering cross country season is over. Now, track meets do not start until February, so I will be posting about the off-season training I go through.
