The Sandpoint Cross Country team was forced to prove their depth this week, running with only 44 of 62 runners. The boys varsity was without 3 of their top 7, and the girls varsity was missing 3 of 7 as well. Both teams had runners step up and provide impressive results.

The girls varsity was once again led by Molly Burgstahler, who ran a fantastic time of 22:22 and placed 6th in the large school division. The top 7 was made up of Molly, Becca Cloud, Miranda Ewing, Ashley Anderson, Audrey Shaw, Danette Mauck and Susan Kovalchuk. The team placed 4th in the large school division.

The JV girls placed first as a team, led by an amazing race by freshman Aubrie Perry. Aubrie ran a 25:39 to place 6th, followed by fellow freshman Marisa Rains who placed 10th with a 26:39.

The boys team were led by Danny Pfeifer, who placed 13th overall and ran an 18:17. David Marienau was 14th, and Jimmy Matthews was 20th. After that was freshman Alex Charvoz, Mason Foster, Galen MacDonald and Damon Rodriguez. The boys placed 4th in the large school division.

The JV boys were 5th today, led by Sophomore Chris Jones who earned a varsity position with his run of 20:19. He placed 10th over all and was followed by Brennen Chasse, Dakota Blaese, Matt Pfeifer and Dylan Hay.

Both teams will be running at the Spokane Valley Invitational next weekend.
