Boys' XC Wins States

The Boys' Cross Country team accomplished a feat that no other team has done before. The Wave won the State Class MM Championship meet at Wickem Park last Saturday (10/31). Led by senior Jake McCauley, the Wave beat runner-up Guilford by 13 points. McCauley placed 2nd in the race. Also stepping up huge for Darien was senior Alex Reynoso. Junior John Conley fell during the first quarter mile of the race, yet, Reynoso saw this and ran a huge race. He placed 7th overall earning All-State honors along with McCauley. Rounding out the Wave finishers were Willem Sandberg, Charlie Baird, Michael Johnston, and David Watson. The Wave will take on the rest of the state in the State Open Championships this Friday, 2:00 PM, at Wickem Park. We wish the boy’s good luck with the rest of their success-filled season.
