The Wiscasset High School boys and girls varsity cross country teams didn’t have to go far to run fast.

On Wednesday, Sept. 17 the team traveled to Boothbay Harbor for the Boothbay Region High School meet to run against teams from Boothbay, St. Dom’s, Monmouth, Hall-Dale, Lisbon and Richmond, among others.

Wiscasset wasn’t able to break through to the top 10, but the Wolverines still featured strong individual performances.

Ella Jones finished 40th with a time of 34 minutes and four second and Amanda Marcus finished in 42nd place with a time of 35 minutes and 42 seconds.

Hall-Dale’s Emma Wilson posted the best time of the day, as she maintained a sub-seven minute-per-mile pace and finished with a time of 21 minutes and 34 seconds.

St. Dom’s would take the day, however, as the Saints finished with just 27 points — 17 points less than second-place Boothbay Region. Monmouth (52 points) rounded-out the top three.

On the boys side, Angus Putnam finished 43rd in a crowded field (he came in one second before Richmond’s Ben Rideout) with a time of 24 minutes and 57 seconds. Logan Orr finished in 49th place with a time of 27 minutes and 22 seconds, while Noah Jones finished the course in 31 minutes and six seconds to place 52nd.

Lisbon’s Nicholas Harriman lived up to his school’s mascot as the Greyhound runner finished first with a time of 17 minutes and 33 seconds. Boothbay Region’s  Joey Paolillo was right on his tail, as he finished with a time of 17 minutes and 46 seconds.

Boothbay Region’s squad would take the day in the end, as the Seahawks placed three runners in the top five for a score of 25. Lisbon (66 points), Hall-Dale (69), St. Dom’s (103) and Richmond (144) rounded out the top five.

The Wolverines will run again Wednesday, Sept. 24 at the University of Maine’s Augusta campus.
