Provo Invite

Friday 9/16 the Varsity boys and girls went to run in the rain and mud at the Provo Bulldog Invite. Historically this has been one of our most successful meets - and this year was no different. The girls ran the 2.95 mile course (new course from previous years) in one of the best races of any PV team ever. Kaylee Boyer won the race in 18:42, followed closely by Rachel Stone in 18:44 (2nd), and Jessica Peterson in 18:48 (3rd). Frida Nilsson (19:54) and Mia Hart (20:13) rounded out the scoring by taking 9th and 13th overall - for a championship win over American Fork by a score of 28-38.
The boys placed third with a strong group showing, but missing Timmy Lunt (to illness), a lack of depth, and a little lower placement than usual led to an effort that wasn't our best. However, the top four grouped within 7 seconds, and that group included Tyson Boyer back for his first race effort this year - so those were two very positive signs.
