Led by Chandler Weiman’s 17th-place finish, the Enumclaw High girls cross country team placed 13th during Saturday’s state Class 3A meet.
The race was contested as the usual venue, Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco, and brought together runners from schools of all sizes throughout Washington.
Weiman completed the course in 19 minutes, 25 seconds, and headed the entire EHS girls team that had qualified a week earlier during district competition. Others making up the EHS squad were Hannah Calvert, 59th place, 20:26; Taryn Schreiner, 73rd, 20:44; Peyton Vick, 87th, 21:07; Abby Callison, 97th, 21:23.1; Riley DaSmul, 98th, 21:23.5; and Lindsay Ross, 102nd, 21:30.
The EHS boys had not qualified as a team, but top runners Cory Johnson and Alec Rhome had performed well enough at districts to earn an individual berth to Pasco. Johnson placed 50th with a time of 16:28 and Rhome was 110th, finishing in 17:19.
