The Mifflin County Boys’ Cross Country wrapped up its season on Saturday morning in Reedsville at the AAA District Six Championship. Competing in a seven team field, the Huskies finished fourth behind winner State College, Altoona and Williamsport.
Leading the way for MC with a top ten finish was Junior Conrad Coffey in 9th ((17:25). Chris Royer 11th (17:31), Caden Bell 19th (18:06), Cody Fultz 25th (18:36), Ben Hartzler 26th (18:47), Luke Breneman 33rd, (19:15) and Maxwell Laudermilch 34th (19:17).
“Districts is always exciting to watch. Beside the winning team qualifying for states the first five individuals also advance. Our boys ran hard but unfortunately fell a little short. With all the rain Friday and into Saturday the course was becoming a swamp,” said Mifflin County cross country coach Greg Loht. “Conrad slipped on the last hill and missed qualifying for states by a second. Chris missed a top ten finish and a medal by less than a second. The team was ready to go and ran their best. They ran their hearts out and I’m proud of their effort.”
In the JV race, Styers Oden placed 10th (19:09), Dominic Reed 21st (20:04) and Cameron Philpott 37th (21:18).
