Once again, just two days after qualifying for the New York State Meet, junior Kelsey Chmiel (Saratoga) took to the streets for a 5k. She first joined the field last year, placing 9th overall in a loaded professional field.
One year later, and Chmiel was back on the line. In 2018, she would run 16:44.4, just two seconds off where she placed last year, and took 10th overall, one place back. Chmiel finished just behind Jen Rhines, a masters runner originally hailing from Liverpool HS. The race was won by former SU standout Sarah Pagano in 15:47.8.
Other notable NY alum included Julia Zachgo (Shenendehowa '17), Maegan Krifchin (JFK Bellmore '06), and many of the Saratoga XC squad from this past year.
