In a spectacular fashion, the middle school boys' cross-country team captured the Rutherford County championship on Saturday. After nearly two grueling miles in the Tennessee heat, both Philip Smith and Max Metzger outsprinted their Siegel middle school opponents in the final steps of the race. Teammates Miles Pinson, Karter Brinkley, Joe Pinson, Miles Rafacz, and Alex Long were just as important to the victory, scoring 44 points as a team. The girls team fought for a well-earned runner-up against county competitors. Adelyn King, Elizabeth Hamilton and Maddy Strickland were the top finishers. By the way... Philip Smith was the overall boys individual champion with a time of 11:50. Please congratulate him for having the fastest feet in the county!
