CUMBERLAND–Twin Brook played host to this year’s cross country South Regional meets on Saturday, Oct. 20. Of particular note in the Class A competition, the Bonny Eagle girls took first place (of 18 teams competing).
Individually, Sofie Matson of Falmouth claimed first in the girls race, needing 19:22.73 to break the (proverbial) tape. Gorhamites Kate Tugman and Iris Kitchen finished second and fourth, respectively (in 19:30.99 and 19:55.94), but Bonny Eaglers Ami Beaumier, Kayla Raymond and Delaney Hesler crossed in sixth, seventh and eighth (20:17.40, 20:19.37, 20:19.56). The trio thus anchored their squad’s victory. Windham’s Hailey Applebee finished 25th, her team’s best performance, while Westbrook’s Eliza Bureau finished 48th, the Blazes’ top time on the day.
