The Perryville girls captured the county cross country meet by the slimmest of margins Tuesday, October 14 at Bohemia Manor High. Each team's top five finishers are counted in the team score. With the first five Panther and Eagle runners counted, the two schools were tied at 39. The winner is then determined by which team's sixth runner finishes ahead of the other's sixth runner. That was a razor-thin margin, too, with Perryville's Brooke Doane finishing 17th among runners from complete teams, 18th overall, in a time of 25:09.59 while Bohemia Manor's Maddie McCall was next in 25:10.06.
Doane had no way of knowing her finish would determine the outcome, but still made sure to finish strong. "There was a Bo Manor runner right behind me and I heard her coming," she said. "So I just sprinted." Bohemia Manor had the top two finishers. Elle Meyer won the race in 21:57, two seconds ahead of teammate Jamie Rhudy. Alanah Bell was third to lead Rising Sun, which was only three places back of the Eagles and Panthers despite running without Emma Wheeler, who was ill. Perryville runners Aleah Losoya, Sierra Montz, and Allison Morris occupied the 4-6 spots. The rest of the Top 20: 7. Josie Brown (Rising Sun), 8. Kiona Brady (Rising Sun), 9. Chelby McCall (Bohemia Manor), 10. Kayla Losoya (Perryville), 11. Megan Clelan (Elkton), 12. Autumn Russell (Rising Sun), 13. Marissa Pixler (Bohemia Manor), 14. Arianna Wheeler (Rising Sun), 15.

North East's Erin Palmer, who won the Susquehanna Division title the week before, missed the meet because of injury but is expected to return in time for regionals if not sooner. Bohemia Manor captured the boys team title led by first place finisher Ty Franks. The Eagles (26) topped Perryville (59), Rising Sun (91), The Tome School (98), Elkton (106), and North East (118).
