By the end of the 6A race, Antonian College Prep (Boys) -- led by John Boland (2nd), Jonavan Lott (8th), and Luke Wurzbach (10th) -- would ultimately claim first prize, with Houston St. Thomas trailing just behind in the overall standings.
Out of Dallas, the Ursuline Academy Bears went on to secure the girls' state title, thanks to the efforts of Presley Andras (3rd) and Marit Beckman (7th). However, the Antonian Prep Apaches featured the top-two finishers in Micaela Villarreal and Alexandra Johnson, resulting in a second-place team score.
In the TAPPS-5A competition, the San Antonio Christian School (SACS) boys team took gold by a land-slide, with Adrian Rule (1st), Nathan Womack (4th), Christian Tarver (8th), and Collin Vines (14th) headlining the group.
Meanwhile, Legacy Prep Christian Academy (LPCA) edged out Grace Community for the distinction of 5A Girls champions, after Emily Kacher (4th), Charlotte Freeman (8th), and Evelyn Griffin (12th) wound up in the Top-15.
More from Houston, the St. John XXIII Lions featured numerous runners who excelled -- particularly Chris Pietrak who finished fourth overall in the Boys 6A race (16:32.27), and Averi Garrity who took the No. 9 spot (12:25.19) in the 2-mile Girls 6A run.
Individually, other the stand-outs include TMI Episcopal's Wells Peterson (1st in 6A Boys), Brentwood Christian's Harper Counts (1st in 5A Girls), Fort Worth Christian's Hunter Hinrichsen (2nd in 5A Boys), Austin Regents' Amelia Weenig (2nd in 5A Boys), FBCA's Elijah Savage (3rd in 5A Boys), Grace Community's Emma Goetz (3rd in 5A Girls), Liberty Christian-Argyle's Madeleine Hollan (4th in 6A Girls).
