The Boothbay Region Elementary School girls placed first and the BRES boys placed second at the cross-country meet held at Great Salt Bay on Sept. 17.

"It was a very warm day on a course with beautiful views for runners participating and spectators," said BRES coach Hildy Johnson. "The 2.3-mile course is not the easiest as there are a few big hills, but it is the location for our championship meet so this was a good preview of what could take place down the road and what we need to work onto achieve a strong finish."

Girls team scores were: BRES 29, Camden-Rockport 40, GSB 75, Appleton 106, and Medomak 123.

Boys team scores were: Camden-Rockport 32, BRES 48, GSB 52, Appleton 115, and Medomak 124.

The St. George School also competed but didn't have enough runners to score.
