By Will Fehlinger-
Originally set for 9:30 a.m., the boys race started at 10:45 as quality racing weather set in. Batesville, led by conference MVP Benjamin Moster and runner-up Ean Loichinger, comfortably won the team title with a cool 24 points. The Wildcat boys were tied with Lawrenceburg at 138 points but the tiebreak dropped them to 6th of 7 full teams. Connersville was incomplete.
Ben Maze (18:25) and Adam Grant (18:40) were one, two for FC, finishing in 14th and 20th. For his effort, Maze was named all-EIAC. Harmon Marshall was next in 29th (19:36), Eric Schwab raced 37th (21:09), Hunter Marshall was 38th (21:25) and Owen Darwish 42nd (23:19).
FC’s girls were missing a fifth runner so recorded an incomplete, as did Connersville and Lawrenceburg. Batesville won with a terrific 20 points. Freshman Esther George ran 22nd (23:35) and senior Katherine Apsley was 33rd (25:33). Kenzie Rogers (28:36) and Moorea Nobbe (32:08) took 42nd and 43rd.
The girls weren’t at full squad Sept. 21 at the Connersville Invitational. George, though, had her best meet of the year (23:17). Rogers also performed to a season best (29:04) at the time.
Maze paced FC at the Spartan tourney. He ran 19:06 and Ha. Marshall had a season best at 19:35. Darwish’s new best time was set at 22:13.
The Greensburg Invitational is Thursday. The Connersville Sectional is Saturday, Oct. 9.
