Breakdown: It was a steady pace that gave Faith DeMars a repeat win at the McQuaid Invite, the only one of the day for the seeded races. Molly Fitzgibbons took the field through a quick first mile, but DeMars would incrementally close the gap. By the second mile, DeMars had the lead, and would not yield until the finish. East Aurora came through together for the next group, followed by 8th grader Mia Paolino, an infusion of talent for the Burnt Hills girls.

Breakdown: As expected, East Aurora ran away with the team competition, to avenge their loss a year ago. Staying connected through the first pairs of runners, the McLaughlin-led crew took home third overall in the merge.
