Emily Wehrman led Spencer, taking 14th in 22:38.0, and Stratford’s Lydia Golbach finished 30th in 24:17.8 to top the Tigers’ runners.

Athens won the boys team title with 33 points on the strength of a first-place finish from Johnathon Nowacki (16:32.4) and a second-place finish from Nicholas Rogaczewski (16:36.4).

Stratford was second with 53 points, Spencer took sixth with 145, and Auburndale didn’t have a complete team with only four runners competing.
