“Today was a training
run,” said Bear Lake coach Eric Ross, citing that a canceled meet this
past weekend forced the Lakers to adjust the training schedule a bit.
“There was no meet Saturday, so I used this as a workout. We’ll do a
hill workout (today) and a long training run on Saturday,” he added.
“This week has worked out better than what I thought it would.”
Bear Lake’s Jaylee Brown finished second overall,
behind Groenwald, in the time of 23:16, followed by teammates Kelly
Babcock (4th, 23:36), Keena Gilbert (5th, 24:02), Alycia Peterson (6th,
24:48), Meredith Hengy (11th, 25:39), Alyson Fink (12th, 25:45),
Danielle Ward (13th, 26:03) and Taylor Anderson (26:29).
For the boys, Tyler Groenwald was followed by
teammates John Girven (3rd, 19:06), Shane Peterson (6th, 19:33), Alex
Ringel (8th, 19:48), Taylor Makowski (9th, 19:56), John Schoedel (11th,
20:07), Jared Bair (12th, 20:18), Alex Barto (13th, 20:20), Stephen
