The boys' cross-country team came into regional action
Saturday morning at Ben Davis High School as the #5 seeded team but came home
in 3rd place after an incredible performance on the rainsoaked course. All seven of the Bulldog harriers set
all-time personal record times over the 5K distance to easily outdistance
fourth-place Ritter and fifth-place Ben Davis.
Zionsville and Avon claimed the top two spots, but the fireworks on the
morning were reserved for the 1-2 individual finishes of regional champion Mark
Bond and regional runner-up Hari Sathyamurthy of Brownsburg. Bond ran away from the competition midway
through the race, and Sathyamurthy closed fast to crush his personal record by
a full one minute! Elijah Wagner, Seth Webster, and Marcus Fierek closed out
the scoring positions for the Dogs, while Brandon Britton and Jack Thomas added
crucial depth. This finish moves the team on to the semistate championships
next Saturday in Carmel.
