On October 5, Darien Girls’ Cross Country earned second place with a total of 58 points, for the 4000 meter (2.5 miles) Varsity race at Waveny Park in New Canaan. New Canaan earned 1st with 33 points, Fairfield Warde got 3rd place with 64 points, and Wilton in 4th place with 67 points.

Due to the heavy rain on Tuesday, the field was full of mud and the woods had many puddles, leading to damp socks and muddy legs. Despite this, it was perfect running weather, with the sun shining and the ideal temperature. There was support from parents, leading to motivated runners.
DHS freshman, Mairead Clas, earned 1st place, with a time of 16:04. Seniors, Penn Boucher and Sophie Hill, earned times of 16:50 and 17:15. Other notable DHS runners are senior Amalia Madariaga and junior Noelle Kennedy.
The next meet is October 9th at Staples. If Fairfield Ludlowe beats New Canaan, then BWXC has a three way tie for FCIAC Eastern Division championship. Wishing the team the best of luck!
