Members of Hamilton Heights Middle School’s cross country team came out of the gate strong at its season opener last Wednesday. Heights proved to be among the best of the eight schools that participated at the Eastern Conditioner hosted by Eastern.
Both the boys and girls B teams brought home first place wins in the B race. Highlights included the Levi Newman and Jonah Wolfgang duo placing first in their race. The top pair in the girls’ race was Lydia Heuer and Fiona McDonald placing second.
The competition was tough in the boys’ A race with Tommy Girolamo and Will Monnin running their way to a respectable third-place finish and second-place overall team finish, only behind the tough Northfield team. In the girls’ A race, four Husky pairs finished in the top 10, bringing home the first-place trophy.
It was a great night to be a Husky cross country runner. Expect more good things out of this talented group of runners in future meets.
