State Meet at Plattsburgh

The NY XC State Meet at Plattsburgh on November 14 was run in the rain and mud of course during a season of mucky Saturday meets. The girls races were run after the boys, so they got the worst of it, and of course the Class C races were last. On the boys side, Brendan Wortner finished at 21st and Pat Wortner got 22nd, and their Section 1 team was 2nd. Sarah King ran to a personal best to get 9th as her Section 1 team finished 1st and Bronxville won another State team title.

All but one of the segments are from the Class C races, though I couldn't get back from the midway point to the finish for the boys race, which came down to the best duel of the day with Pawling's Brandon Freyer beating reigning champ Max Straneva of Chenango Valley with the 2nd best time of the day behind North Rockland's Nick Hughes in the AA race. Have added three segments from the historic Girls AA race with Fayetteville-Manlius sweep of top 5 spots, and there is also a segment near the beginning of the girls B race at the bottom of the page.
