The Hermann freshman, who has been the Bearcats’ top varsity finisher all fall, took second place in the meet at Loutre Shore Country Club. His time of 17:36.17 was one of his best all season.
Clay Nolte, a junior from Chamois who has been a Class 1 state qualifier the past two seasons, was the meet medalist. He finished the 5K run in 17:30.32.
Hermann’s second runner was another freshman, Trevor Hartman. His time of 19:40.52 put him in 27th place out of 57 runners. Andrew Riddell of the Bearcats placed 38th in 20:16.36. Senior Jon Baumstark was 41st and Dalton Gillig, a sophomore, was 42nd.
