BOYS CROSS COUNTRY 4th PRINCETON INVITE
The rain held off at the Princeton Invitational on Saturday, and the Lakota East Cross Country team saw some good conditions for racing which led to many lifetime and season-best performances. The men’s team placed a very respectable 4th out of 14 teams, even without their top 2 runners in the lineup.
The Hawk men were led by junior Sean Castillo who ran a huge lifetime best performance to place 11th overall in a 106-runner field. Sean’s time was 17:08.2 for the 5k (3.1-mile) course. Senior Ashton Gibbs was back in action, after a short injury layoff, to place 15th overall in a season-best time of 17:18. Junior, Jake Boeskool, ran another personal record of 17:37 to place 21st overall.
Right behind Jake was freshman Evan Aponte who placed 22nd overall. Evan ran a personal-best time of 17:45. The 5th and final scorer for the Thunderhawks were junior Andrew Gibson, who ran a season-best time of 17:55 to place 26th overall.
Next up for Lakota East Cross Country is the King's Duals at Kingswood Park on October 2nd. The men will batter Kings at the event.
