For the first time,
Windham took part in the

Saturday, Sept. 26, and the
girls team ran well thanks
in large part to the 11th-place
time of Kate Farrell.

cross country race in 21
minutes, 7 seconds. Emma
Boyd’s time of 22:12 was
the second-fastest time for
the Jaguars.

Goodale in 92nd, Alexis
Clemons in 96th and Glori
Foster in 112th.
Both of the Pelham

the event. The boys ended
the day in 20th among 31
teams, and the girls were
10th out of 21.
Ethan Ely and Emily

times for the boys and girls,
respectively, Ely coming in
87th in the small-school category
at 18:50 and Spognardi
grabbing seventh overall
with a time of 20:55.
Salem’s day at the races
included a 16th-place finish
from its boys team and
an eighth-place result from
the girls.
