Westchester County Meet at Somers on Halloween

On another soggy course, this time at Somers for the Westchester County XC meet on October 31, the Eagles ran well enough to win six medals in four races in a prep for the Sectionals on November 6. Pat Wortner had another early race tumble but recovered enough to finish 7th overall with Brendan Wortner close behind in 8th. Sarah King got 7th on the girls side, and Chloe Wang lost a shoe in the muck but still socked it up and finished. Grant Sheely sprinted in 8th in the boys freshman race, and Lila Walsh got the Eagles' top place of the day as she got 2nd on the girls side while teammate Rebecca Wiersma finished 9th.

Due to traffic congestion squeezing through the bottleneck to the finish, the boys varsity race only begins as Pat Wortner is crossing the finish with many heads in way.
