Eighth grader Nygel Woodard finished second for the Griffins and in 43rd place of the 113 runners with an 18:42.99 finish. Freshman Hank White followed in 68th place at 19:27.98. Eighth grader Sidney Wilson and sophomore Rylan Woodard also finished under 20 minutes. Wilson finished at 19:47.31 for 78th place, a personal best, and Woodard finished at 19:56.34 for the 80 spot. Sophomore Malachi Woodard rounded out the Griffins’ times at 21:07.48.
Mosley’s experience combined with tenaciousness of young talent catapulted the Griffins into their first region finish in program history this year.
