Lowndes harriers Rogers and Morse get wins at Quail Trail Invite

Call it the Thomasville High Invitational, or call it the Quail Trail Invitational, or cover all bases and call it the Thomasville High Quail Trail Invitational. The name keeps changing, but since 2009 it has been consistent that on the final Saturday of September, Thomasville High hosts a large cross-country meet at Pebble Hill Plantation, just south of Thomasville, Georgia. The course is also consistent, a mix of meadow and forest and magnolia-lined avenues and red clay hills. But isn't that a recipe for cross country?


After a community race, the sixth annual Invitational got started at 9:00 AM on Saturday morning, 27 September 2014, with the high school girls 5K. Lowndes High sophmore Mackenzie Morse won that race, running 20:39 to pick up her fourth win of the season. Lowndes also picked up second place, with frosh Makenzee Page running 21:27. Rebekah Smith, a junior from host school Thomasville, placed third in 21:56.


Having the first two runners wasn't enough to get Lowndes to the top of the team standings, though. Tift County answered with three runners in the top ten--sophomore Sloan Fletcher (4th, 22:48), junior Madison Honeycutt (8th, 23:12), and frosh Ashlee Golden (9th, 23:12). The next two Tift girls, seniors Blakeley Bergeron (11th, 23:37) and Sarah Willis (16th, 23:50), finished before Lowndes' fourth scorer, giving Tift 47 points and the team title. Lowndes was second with 69 points and Valdosta edged Thomasville for third in the 14-team field, 104 to 106.

In the next race, the Lowndes boys did the Lowndes girls one better by taking the first three places. Dylan Rogers won the race in 17:22, followed by runner-up Chance Roe in 17:30, with third-place occupied by Andrew Elam in 17:38. All three runners were Lowndes juniors. The first non-Lowndes runner in the race was Rickards junior Solomon Stevens. Up from Tallahassee, Florida, Stevens was fourth in 17:48. Rickards had three runners in the top ten, but once freshman Elijah Boyd (12th, 18:26) and junior Will Smith (13th, 18:27) came home for Lowndes, the team competition was over. Lowndes had 31 points, winning their first boys' team title ever at Quail Trail. Rickards went home to Tallahassee with second place, and Thomas County Central was third with 129.


A few of these teams will be back at Pebble Hill Plantation on Wednesday morning, 29 October 2014, when Thomasville High hosts the GHSA Region 1-2A championship meet.

2014 was the third year in the Quail Trail middle school boys' race for Bainbridge's Caleb Harris, It was the eighth-graders first Quail Trail win, though, as Harris blew away the field with a 10:35. It was his fifth win in five races this season, with earlier wins coming at the Pelham Hornet Invitational, the Cougar Challenge, the Lee County Invitational, and the Bearcat Invitational.


Behind Harris, Carson Locke of the Viking Runners Club was runner-up at 11:22, and Holy Comforter's Bryce Valveri edged Bryce Stephens of Tift for third, 11:29 to 11:30.


Seminole County's Aubry Johnson was the only runner on his team to break into the top ten, placing tenth in 11:49. But Seminole County also had Taylor Garrett (13th, 11:59), Logan Jones (21st, 12:20), Zane Widner (23rd, 12:21), and Payton Price (25th, 12:27). The five together gave Seminole County 92 points and the middle school boys' team title. Bainbridge was second in the 18-team field with 109 points, and Berrien County placed third with 116.

Kelly and Elam tops on the trail at Quail Trail

South of Thomasville, Georgia, on Saturday morning, 27 September, Valdosta High cross-country coach won the sixth annual Quail Trail 5K, racing around the grounds of Pebble Hills Plantation in 17:40. Tallahassee's Jay Smith was the fastest master runner in the race, finishing runner-up in 18:54. Just behind Smith, Bainbridge, Georgia, master runner Greg Waddell placed third in 19:11. Valdosta master runner Nancy Elam was the first woman finisher, coming in 18th overall in 24:03. About a hundred meters back, Amy Zboralski was the women's runner-up, finishing 21st overall in 24:40. Destiny Roe of Valdosta's Viking Runners Club was third in the women's standings, placing 23rd overall in 24:59. Roe would race again that morning, returning to finish fourth in the middle school girls' 3K race.


Since 2009, the Quail Trail 5K has been the opening event in the Quail Trail Invitational, part of a program that includes high school and middle school races. Coach Kelly was at the Quail Trail with his Valdosta Middle School Team in 2012 when he won the race, and again in 2013 when he finished second to Lowndes High sophomore Chance Roe.

Maclay harriers make themselves at home at Silver Lake

Silver Lake isn't anyone's home course. The closest high school is over fifteen kilometers away, and there hadn't been a cross-country meet at the Silver Lake Recreation Area since 2007. Nevertheless, six Big Bend schools sent their cross country runners to the park on Saturday morning, 27 September 2014 for the high school race at the Salute To Prefontaine 5K. And even though it was neutral ground, the Maclay athletes treated it like their home course, winning both boys' and girls' team titles.


Unlike a typical high school cross-country meet, both the boys and the girls ran together in a single race. The Maclay boys were soon in command, with Clay Milford (1st, 18:25), Jake Mazziotta (2nd, 18:29), and George Gwynn (3rd, 18:29) taking the top three places. With Marauders James McClure finishing ninth in 19:45 and George Escobar tenth in 19:48, Maclay had put all five of their scorers in the top ten for a sum of 25 points. Wakulla took second with 45 points and Aucilla was third with 73.

2. Wakulla, 45
3. Aucilla, 73

8. 19:37 ~ Garret Grant (North Florida Christian)
9. 19:45 ~ James McClure (Maclay)
10. 19:48 ~ George Escobar (Maclay)

Maclay may have performed like it was the Marauders' home course, but the park at Silver Lake looks like most of the land in Wakulla County. Wakulla High sophomore Haleigh Martin made the most of the familiar terrain. Overtaking early leader Caroline Willis of Maclay, Martin built up a lead of over 100 meters on her way to a 21:19 win. With that and earlier victories at the Cougar Challenge and the Dolphin Dash, Martin ran her record to a perfect three wins in three outings this season. Willis was second in 21:50, the first of a deluge of Maclay blue-and-white uniforms to cross the line. Maclay took seven of the top ten places, with scorers Molly McCann placing third in 22:36, Kenzie Mazziotta fourth in 23:29, Lindsay James fifth in 23:47, and Katie Whitworth seventh in 24:03. After that Maclay had 21 points and the girls' team title. Wakulla was second with 36 points and Aucilla third with 65.

Lake and Atkinson salute Prefontaine with speed

Gulf Winds Track Club staged their 39th annual "Salute to Prefontaine" 5K on Saturday morning, 27 September 2014, just west of Tallahassee at Silver Lake Recreation Area in the Apalachicola National Forest. The event isn't your typical memorial to Steve Prefontaine.


The distance runner Steve Prefontaine wasn't a native son of Eugene, Oregon, but the city couldn't have loved him more if he had been. After his untimely death in 1975, Prefontaine's friends and fans worked to construct "Pre's Trail." The trail opened in Fall of 1975, just months after Prefontaine died. It was the kind of path that he had seen while competing in Europe--smooth, wide, and surfaced with bark and other natural materials. Pre's Trail averages eight feet wide, spacious enough for cross-country meets and community races. Volunteers keep the vegetation trimmed back from the trail.


A year after Pre's Trail opened, the first Salute to Prefontaine 5K was run in Tallahassee. The course has changed over the years, but it has been always been on paths, jeep trails, and forest roads surfaced with loose sand and other natural materials, but mostly loose sand. The course may actually be a maximum of eight feet wide in some spots, but I'd have to think hard to be able to name those spots. Before the race, volunteers drag sticks and logs out of the woods and onto the course.


It's a hypothetical question as to which memorial Steve Prefontaine would consider more fitting. Maybe they're equally appropriate in that they're both vehicles by which people express their love for running. Which is a nice thought, but my preference would still be for the memorial where I'd be less likely to trip, fall down, and hurt myself.


More than 300 runners showed up in the Forest were less timid on the trails, though, and showed up for the 2014 Salute to Prefontaine, over 180 in an open 5K and the rest in a later high school 5K race. So many showed up that the line into the Silver Lake Recreation Area got backed up, and the 8:30 AM start had to be delayed by 15 minutes. But the race did start, and Chris Lake bolted to the front of the field. Vince Molosky tucked in behind Lake, managing to stay on his heels until right before the halfway point, when Lake started to open a gap. Meanwhile, Patrick Dawson of the Shaw's Running Team was closing in on Molosky. During the second half of the race Dawson moved into second, but couldn't break contact with Molosky. Nate Kaiser closed in, also challenging for second place.


Chris Lake raced home to win in 17:43. Patrick Dawson held off a late charge from Vince Molosky to hang on to second, 17:55 to 17:56. Nate Kaiser was close behind them in fourth at 17:59. In a tight race for the top master spot, Michael Martinez edged out Philip Sura 20:24 to 20:26, the two master runners finishing seventh and eighth overall.


Renee Cox led the women's field almost from the start of the race, but Cora Atkinson always had Cox in her sights. A Life University cross-country runner, Atkinson closed on Cox during the second half of the race. With 200 meters to go, Atkinson was on Cox's shoulder, with Cox fighting to stay ahead. Atkinson flashed by, though, taking the women's title with a 22:30, finishing 29th overall. Cox was the women's runner-up, coming in 30th overall in 22:33. Anna Busby, the previous week's Women's Distance Festival 5K champion, was third in the women's standings, 35th overall in 22:59. Paula O'Neill was the fourth woman finisher and first woman master, 52nd overall in 24:36.

Sukhi Khosla and Leon win big at Bale 'N' Trail

If you were going by the FACA cross-country rankings, you would have concluded that Bartram Trail and Creekside boys' teams would both place ahead of Leon at the 13th Bale 'N' Trail Cross Country Original. But on Saturday morning, 27 September 2014, the boys from Tallahassee demonstrated a total lack of respect for the rankings by demolishing the field at Bale 'N' Trail. Defending state champion Sukhi Khosla led Leon with a 15:38 win as the Lions took four of the top five places and put up a mathematically unbeatable score of 23 points. In the girls' race, Bolles junior Mackenzie Wilson ran 18:42 to grab her first win of the season, leading her team to a 33-point score and the Bale 'N' Trail title.


It was misty and somewhat cool (or at least not nearly as warm) in Jacksonville at 7:30 AM, the scheduled starting time for the boys' 5K at Bale 'N' Trail. The course was also wet and muddy in spots because of an overnight rain. There were also some low barriers on the course, the "bales" in "Bale 'N' Trail". Three-time state cross-country champion Matt Mizereck encountered the barriers at the 2008 Bale 'N' Trail.


"Small, like one-foot tall hay cubes, nothing crazy," Mizereck described the obstacles. "When you are tired they are kinda annoying but you can literally just run around them."


They certainly didn't get in Mizereck's way; he set the Bale 'N' Trail record of 15:06.28.


Neither the mini-bales nor the mud bothered Sukhi Khosla, either. The Leon senior took the lead 600 meters into the race, then only got farther and farther ahead as he cranked out the distance. Behind Khosla, Leon runners Kyle Buchholz, Hunter Scott, and Adam Wallenfelsz ran in a group, swapping places back and forth. Finishing the race with a lead of over 200 meters, Khosla won the race in 15:38. Buchholz was second in 16:20. Creekside senior David Cash Tampa broke up the Leon pack, placing third in 16:24, but Leon senior Hunter Scott (4th, 16:25) and Leon junior Adam Wallenfelsz (5th, 16:32) followed him across the finish line. Once sophomore Matt Cashin (12th, 16:52) had crossed the finish line for Leon, the Lions had 23 points and the 2014 Bale 'N' Trail title. Creekside, with three runners in the top ten, scored 58 points to take second. Host school Bartram Trail was third with 118 points.

Mackenzie Wilson had finished second to Fletcher sophomore Kayley Delay in their first two meets of the season, the UNF Invitational and the Katie Caples Invitational. At the Bale 'N' Trail Original, though, their third meeting belonged to Wilson, as the Bolles junior put up a 18:42 to Delay's 18:59 to win the girls' 5K. Three other Bolles runners joined Wilson in the top ten--sophomore Ally Hajda (3rd, 19:13), Frosh Rachel Shapiro (6th, 19:48), and senior Ash DeHechavarria (9th, 20:12). Bolles' fifth scorer Aoife O'Riordan (14th, 20:25) finished her team's sum of 33 points, good enough to earn the Bulldogs their third Bale 'N' Trail girls' title in the thirteen-year history of the event. Columbia totalled 88 points to take second, and Nease was third with 111 points.
