The Raiders ran well at Tonasket Oct. 3, when Kyle Edmo placed first out of 27 runners for high school boys, and Chase Marchand finished first in the middle school race out of 29 runners.
Edmo finished the 2.8-mile high school race in 16 minutes, eight seconds, 12 seconds ahead of second placer Korbin Forsman of Republic.
"The course is shorter than usual; however, it did not lack in challenges," said Coach Ann Green. "The course is mostly hills and dirt trails. We had a beautiful day with little to no wind."
Also in the high school race, Raider Colton Jackson placed fifth in 16:58; Germaine Sittingcrow finished 13th in 18:50; and Alonzo Adams finished 16th in 20:00.
In the 1.4-mile middle school race, Chase Marchand finished first in 7:50. He was 26 seconds ahead of second placer Logan Thompson of Curlew.
"The whole team is showing tremendous success as they PR every week," Green said. "Though the length of the course was shorter, it's still amazing to see them push themselves harder and see them doing great during practice and in meets."
The cross country runners are scheduled to run again today, Oct. 9, in Omak, at 4 p.m. and again in Moses Lake on Oct. 12 at 10 a.m.
