For the first time under the helm of Coach Holt, both the Pine View boys and girls x-country teams were represented in the State Championships. The girls got the beautiful day started by finishing 14th in the State led by Ashley Judd who finished 24th and was selected to the Utah 4A Senior All-Star Team. This is a very respectable finish for the young team that had only two runners from the last PV girls team to run at state (2006) and is only losing 2 Senior runners.
The boys took 4th (tying for 3rd and losing the tie-breaker to Orem by just 2 places). Competing against some of the top rated teams in the nation, this was a great finish for the team. The 35 second spread from 1-5 was the second best in the entire state (2nd only to Mountain View); and losing only 1 Varsity competitor to graduation, PV is looking to compete for a State Title next season.
Great job to every member of the team; those that competed at state, JV runners that pushed all season long, and of course all those that supported the team throughout entire long season!
