Corning Clinches Course Record Sweep - McDaniel Baxter Pre-State Recap




Girls Race 2 Individual

Notes: All it took was one race for the girls competition to determine what type of course Chenango Valley was: a kickers course.  Every race would be decided in the last mile, and no one demonstrated that better than Hayleigh Palottti.  The pace went out strong, led by Kamryn McIntosh and Rachel Ludwidkowski of Suffern.  The tandem pair led the race through 2miles, With Palotti content to sit in third.  But on the back hills, the junior on the rise made her move.  Surging up the hills, she found a lead into the finishing stretch.  A flat 400m through the line, and Palotti came away with her first major win.

Girls Race 2 Team

Notes: The reigning Class B Champs John Jay - Cross River showed they were ready to roll again in 2016.  Elmira Express put up a good fight, with an impressive sub-30sec compression, but John Jay had that Top 10 finish by Kathryn Nohilly to lock up the win.  Their win over in-Section Rival Suffern, shows they could do very well come Sectionals, despite being in different classifications.
