In the last few meters, Barbash pulled ahead finishing two seconds in front of Ryba. Both runners received best times for the season of 19:13 and 19:15, respectively.

Seniors Andrew Palmer and Brandt Silver-Korn led the way for the Vikes in the Seeded Boys Invitational Race. Palmer won the race by 11 seconds with a time of 15:40 while Silver-Korn’s time of 16:27 earned him a fifth place finish.
