Top runners for Wave XC begin the varsity race as an unbeatable pack. |
At 11:30 am on Saturday, October 28th, the Blue Wave girls cross country team ran their top seven girls in the Class L State Championship race at Wickham Park in East Hartford. Junior Sophie Hill was the team’s top finisher, with a time of 22:10 for the difficult 5k course. Last week, Hill finished 28th in the FCIAC race, earning the All-FCIAC title. She is a strong and resilient runner, who will lead BWXC to great success in the 2018 season. Junior Penn Boucher and senior Emilia Callery also had stand-out races, finishing 3rd and 4th for Darien. Senior captain Callery has been a top finisher for Darien since her freshman year, and really rounded out her cross country career in her final race. She is impressively consistent for a one-season runner, and her leadership on the team for the past 4 years is unparalleled. BWXC will miss her. Many cross country runners, including senior captains KC Grady, Kimmy Olvany and Carson Halabi will run indoor and outdoor track for the Wave. Catch us on the new track next month!
