Dane Talbert took third in 17:44, and Alex Salgado, a rising junior on the Columbus High cross country team, was fourth in 19:14.
Alina Salgado took the women's title, coming in 23rd overall in 23:09. Salgado recently graduated from Columbus High and is an alumna of the school's cross country program. Heather Harlow (26th, 23:35) was second in the women's standings and Olivia Salgado (27th, 23:42) was third. Susan Lancaster was the top woman master and fourth female finisher, placing 31st overall in 24:23.
