For the boys, Cooper Bostrom was Clinton’s top finisher, placing 14th with a time of 19 minutes, 45 seconds.
“Cooper is a sophomore, and he had a great time,” Clinton Coach Tim Kumes said.
Max Bostrom finished 49th with a time of 22:22. Tyler Gomez came in 62nd (24:49), and Gideon Follett placed 73rd (28:16).

“Alli had a top-10 finish, and I’m really proud of all our kids,” Kumes said. “I’m proud of them for their effort, and I love their attitude.
“We’ll take some time off for Fall Break, then come back and run the Clinton 5K. After that, we’ll start preparing for the final stretch of the season and get ready for the region.”
