Ches-Mont League Championships @ Malvern Prep
5000 meters
Windy, cool, 50 degrees
First year runner Jessie Yestear of Downingtown tied
the course record at Malvern Prep with a 19:53. That was the good news.
The bad news was that Coatesville's Kelly O'Connell was ahead of her, finishing
in 18:49. But both girls saw their team finish behind a strong showing
by West Chester Henderson, who went 3-4-6-7-8 for just 28 points. Rob Robertson,
Coatesville, won the boys title in 16:13, breading the old course record
of 16:44. Henderson also won the boys title with 30 points.
