            "It was great to get Preston Bohl back running," said Coach Jason Bohl. "He has been out since the end of July with a stress fracture and was able to get third overall to obtain All Conference status."

            P. Bohl's official time for the 5,000 meter race was 17:30.30, only slightly behind Bereford's Andrew Atwood and Baltic's John Gronewold.

            "Noah Schotzko and Emma Hanson also ran varsity and had their best times of the season," said Coach Bohl. Schotzko finished at 20:30.82 and Hanson finished at 24:28.14.

            In JV, Eliza Potter (11th at 20:34.72), Nathanial Roberts (7th at 16:38.50), and Sebastian Deyoung (8th at 16:44.84) brought home medals in the junior varsity races.

            Garretson harriers will be competing today (Thursday) in Salem at Regions, the final meet prior to State competition on October 22.
