Annette Fare led the women’s squad, placing 9th overall with a personal best time of 20:27. She was followed by Carley Lynch in 23:14 – a season best time, newcomer Elizabeth Sheahan in 23:31, Georgia Jurden in 24:20 – a season best time and Alyssa Unger in 25:32

In the men’s race, Andrew Hardy finished 15th overall running a personal best time of 27:57. Jerald Brownell also ran a personal best time of 31:54

“This was a true cross country course,” coach Kevin Sweeney said. “The course was muddy and wet, and it was cool and rainy all day.  It was a great day to run! Our Centurions took advantage of the conditions, ran hard and did a great job competing.”

The next race for the Centurions is the Region XII Championships being held in Byron Center on Friday, Oct. 27.
