Oct. 17—Running in familiar territory last Thursday at College of Coastal Georgia, Glynn Academy cross country nearly came away with a clean sweep at Run The Plank.
Both the Terrors' boys and girls team each took first place in the team competition — the GA girls also running away with first and second individually.
Led by Maura Thomas' first-place time of 20:37, the Glynn Academy girls defeated second-place South Effingham by 26 points. The domination encapsulated by the fact the final Lady Terror crossed the finish line ahead of the first runner for three of the five competing schools.
Lexi Alberson (20:52; second place), Carolina Wessel (22:08; fifth), Lacy Reedy (22:23; seventh), Abigail Winford (22:24; eighth) and Bella Albright (22:26; ninth) each notched top-10 finishes, with Wyleigh Foulk rounding out the group in 14th overall with a time of 23:37.
The Brunswick High girls finished third as a team, led by Emma Kirkland's fourth-place finish in a time of 22:06. Sydney Haywood (23:02; 13th), Riley Letson (26:48; 25th), Emily Hoskins (26:59; 27th), Arianna Bradley (32:10; 32nd) and Gracie Yates (33:54; 36th).
Frederica Academy's Maggie Dorminy also competed in the girls' race as an individual, placing sixth overall with a time of 22:22.
On the boys' side, Glynn Academy managed to build a 14-point margin over second-place South Effingham, which saw its runners take the top two spots.
Instead, the Terrors won on their depth — taking the next three places and five of the top nine.
