Marianas High School’s Logan Mister posted the fastest time in the high school division of the fourth and final leg of Northern Marianas Athletics’ 2016 All Schools Cross Country Series held last Saturday at the CPA Airport Field.
Mister completed the three-mile course in 21:38 to finish ahead of Saipan Southern High School’s Haruya Eda (21:52) and Saipan International School’s LeHyuk Jang (28:09) and Isabel Dickinson (28:35). Mister and Eda took the Top 2 finishers in the boys U15 division, while Jang and Dickinson were the only entries in the U17 age group.
Only four joined the high school races, as Agape Christian School, which in the past three legs fielded more than 40 runners, had an event held on the same day of the competition.
Meanwhile, SIS’ Victoria Torres and Mt. Carmel School’s Dominic Torres were the top finishers in the two-mile course for the U13 age group.
Dominic capped the two-lap race in 15:03 to beat 10 others in his division, while Victoria was the lone entry in her field and clocked in at 16:25.
Whispering Palms’ Kaden Church and Saipan Community School’s Mateo Guerrero joined Dominic in the Top 3 after submitting 15:11 and 15:48, respectively. Other finishers in the boys U15 division were Dandan Middle School’s Xavier Sumor (16:18), Jerwin Mendiola (16:23), Ron Muna (28:50), and Luke Gilnifrad (29:03), Whispering Palms’ Blake Mister (16:36), SCS’ Vinson Bacani (25:12) and Derrick Seo (28:03), and MCS’ Vidal Sablan (25:29).
Runners who joined in the first four legs of the series will compete in the 2016 All Schools Cross Country on Nov. 19 at the Laolao Bay Golf & Resort with the start time to be announced later.
