Both varsity races had some surprises, certainly confirmations and some incredible racing!

Boys Race
The boys race got after it right away as the boys from Bishop Guertin, Sam Prescott, Ethan Fischer, and Michael Studer decided to attack from the gun towing the field around the first field loop. The Pinkerton pack was prevalent in the chase pack. By the time the field hit the bridge for the woods loop, Fischer assumed the lead with Pinkerton’s Trainor Mailloux (Pinkerton, senior) on his shoulder. Also by this time, Pinkerton was controlling the team race.

The top 10 was packed with Pinkerton athletes demonstrating the Long Red Line. Oscar D’Amelio (junior, 15:52.53) claimed fourth, Jason Robie (junior, 15:58.84) finished sixth, and Sean Hayes (senior, 16:15.36) crossed in ninth. Adding depth, Joseph Gustavson (junior, 16:19.98) and Austin Cipriano (senior, 16:31.00) both landed in the top 15, with Owen Boucher (junior, 16:55.47) also inside the scoring top 20.
