Season Highlights
2nd Place - Maryland 3A Cross Country Championships!
Einstein boys cross country team continued its rise to
the top of state as they powered to a second place finish at the 3A
state cross country championship at Hereford High School. They edged out
county rival Quince Orchard by five points finishing with 133 points to
take the state runner up position. Only Hereford High School with 63
points was able to beat the Titans. Einstein got strong performances
from first through seventh man and were led by Nick Simpson (17th) who
just edged out Andrew Ceruzzi (18th), followed by Ben Withbroe (20th)
and then Alex Hevey (27th) who just missed earning a medal by 2 seconds
and literally ran out of his shoe at the finish, Micky Hagos (51st),
Peter Giblin (56th) and Sam Kaiser (67th). All the runners posted
personal bests for this course. Quince Orchard had beaten Einstein in
all their previous meetings this year from the Magruder Invitational by
81 points, to the Paul Short Invitational by156 points, to the County
Championship by 20 points and just a week ago Thursday at the 3A West
Region meet by 23 points. The race today under perfect conditions
started out at a fast pace and after a mile Einstein was in 6th place
overall. However, over the next mile Titans clawed their way to the top
and were in third place only two points back of Quince Orchard after two
miles. From there, Einstein surged past the Cougars to grab a second
place finish. This is the highest finish by an Einstein boys team since
1985 which also finished second. Congratulation boys for a great race
and great season as well as Coach Da Silva and Ligon for pushing these
guys and having them peak at just the right moment. On the girls side,
freshman Lauren Logan who qualified individually from the region meet
finished in a fantastic 35th place. Great job Titans!
