#6 BC High tops Malden Catholic, 17-46

Eight grader Cooper Wilson got it down for the Eagles as he defended their home course in route to a 17:54 PR. The eagles rested their Varsity squad as they prep for the Devens Pre-Championship Meet this weekend, which gave some of their other top runners a chance to shine. In second and third were freshmen, Seamus Collins and Nolan Kurtz, running 18:03 and 18:05. Finishing fourth overall and first for Malden Catholic was Paul Harrington in a season best of 18:16.

#7 Boys Reading defeats #3 Lexington, 18-37

Did the Rockets usurp the Minutemen? At least for the time being. There will certainly be speculation as Lexington was without top runner Patrick Noonan. However, that doesn’t take away from the Reading boy’s performance, as we know how good they are after their impressive win at Bay State.

Finn Johnson-Houlihan and Tim Connolly went 1-2 for the Rockets in 15:58 and 16:02 at Reading Town Forest. Rhys Beling was first for Lexington in 16:15. It was Andrew Princic, Max King, and Cameron Gigler that secured the win, as they went 4-6, running between 16:24 and 16:31. The regular season isn’t over, but the win here should secure the Middlesex League title for Reading.

#1 Girls Lexington tops Reading, 15-50

Lexington took care of business yesterday as they defeated Reading to remain undefeated. They rested most of their Varsity Runners, most likely in preparation for Wickham Park this weekend. Erin Ehman got the win in 19:46 while Lexington secured the first eight positions. Finishing first for Reading was Allie Juffre in 22:28.

Lexington has their biggest dual meet of the season next week against #4 Winchester. That’s a tough turnaround if they race Wickham with their Varsity team this weekend. Stay tuned!

#4 Girls Winchester defeats Woburn, 15-48

Winchester continues to roll through the Middlesex league as they head toward their collision with Lexington next week. Julia Ramsey, Caroline Lanz, and Michelle Su all cracked 20, with Ramsey running 19:16. Chloe Chan, Millie McDonald, and Abigail Bastien rounded out the top six. Woburn’s Carla Bosso and Zoe Faiano prevented the sweep running 21:04 and 21:32.

Winchester Boys top Woburn, 25-32

Dawit Kulubya and Noah Damaske came down to the wire, with Kulubya getting the better of his rival, 16:35 to 16:36. Kulubya continues to cement himself as one of the top runners in the Middlesex League. Keep an eye on him as we head into championship season.

Tyler Bernstein and Noah Mannelli helped secure the win for Winchester as they finished third and fourth in 17:00 and 17:01. Woburn and Winchester then went back and forth with Jonathan and David Harrington of Woburn taking the next two spots, and Winchester’s Nikola Dimitrov finishing seventh.

#2 Saint John’s Prep defeats #10 Catholic Memorial, 19-44

The Eagles had an impressive victory over a strong Catholic Memorial team yesterday. Sain John Prep’s John McIntosh got the win over Catholic Memorial star Michael Upton, 16:19 to 16:30.  The Eagles then took the next six spots over the Knights to secure the win, running between 16:55 and 17:29. Saint John’s Prep will next be in action at the Catholic Conference Championships, while Catholic Memorial will look to continue their impressive invitational run at the Manhattan Invite.
