Hadleigh Walton led all Aledo individuals, finishing fourth over the 5K course with a time of 19 minutes, 32.45 seconds. As a team, the Ladycats and Bearcats each finished sixth.
Not only did runners have to compete against each other, they also had to take on a wet course.
“The course itself was a little long, and their sprinkler system decided to turn on right before the varsity girls race. That left all the runners to run through the sprinklers and mud, which slowed everyone down,” Aledo coach Mike Pinkerton said. “All things considered, I was very proud of the way our runners battled through the adversity and finished very strong.”
The Aledo varsity is back in competition Friday at the Nike South meet at Texas A&M University in College Station. The JV will compete was competing at Benbrook at press time.
