This event drew in over 40 schools and well over 1,000 runners to traverse the picturesque (and soggy) Two Mile Run County Park course, the home of the Rocky Grove Orioles. Local runners fared well among the large crowd at competitors who started the day clean, but ended very, very muddy, especially the last racers of the day.
Kennedy Liderbach of Oil City finished fifth among the 185 racers.
Titusville took the girl's team honor with all five runners finishing in the top 35. Lakeview took second place among the 20 schools sporting a full squad. The Cranberry team was third, a feat they repeated in the boy's varsity race.
In the junior high competitions, Dalton Wenner of Cranberry won the boy's race and Keegan Kirkwood finished third. Danica Wenner was the top local runner in the girl's competition, earning third place.
