04 Nov, 2024
Just like that, the first series of Fall championships has come and gone.
Teams from around the state gathered at Old Settler's Park in Round Rock, TX this past weekend to take part in the annual UIL State Cross Country Meet, and there was a vast array of individuals who went on to excel.
In Class 6A, Southlake Carroll (Boys) took gold as a team, after Caden Leanord (1st), Blake Bullard (8th) and Griffin Cords (11th) finished within the Top 20.
On the girls' side, Flower Mound brought home first prize, due to top placements from Adeline Bennett (4th), Alexandra Fox (5th) and Ava Cole (6th). Additionally, Denton Braswell's Maxy Wingard took the top spot individually.
Representing H-Town, Bridgeland featured some stand-outs, with Benjamin Montgomery and Lily Fawcett placing second overall in their respective races, leading to the Bears finishing 3rd (Boys) and 2nd (Girls) as a team in 6A.
Onto the Class 5A scene, Lucas Lovejoy (Boys) claimed the State Title, while San Antonio's Smithson Valley won it all in the UIL-5A Girls competition, with the Lovejoy Leopards finishing 2nd.
Individually, Boerne-Champion's Elizabeth Leachman took gold by almost a full minute ahead of second place (Dana Rojas Vazquez - McAllen).
Other noteworthy performances include Friendswood's Aiden Fitzgerald (2nd in 5A Boys), Smithson Valley's Brady Solansky (3rd in 5A Girls), Denton Braswell's Aleksandr Acuna (3rd in 6A Boys), Coppell's Maya Easterwood (3rd in 6A Girls), Boerne-Champion's Charlie Houck (4th in 5A Boys) and SA Reagan's Gavin Chapa (4th in 6A Boys).
