Notes
North Lincoln’s runners dazzled in the 2A NCHSAA State Cross Country Meet at Ivey Redmon Park. The Men’s team and women’s both cruised to state championships, the men grabbing their fourth straight while the women secured their first in program history. Atkins senior Walter Sellers sped through the course in 15:40.86, narrowly missing the 2A State Meet Course record for the Ivey Redmon Complex Course. The mark is still held by the 2019 performance of Jason Thomson from North Lincoln who posted 15:40.66 on the same trail. Sellers run helped push Atkins to a second-place finish as a team, averaging a time of 16:54.45. North Lincoln men ran away with the meet, defeating Atkins by a 40-79 margin. The Knights were led by Miles Phillips who finished second in the meet with a time of 15:51.39. Teammate Jacob Scott was just on his heels at 15:54.64 in third overall with fellow squad members Stephen Fernetti and Jared Campbell posting top-ten overall finishes in the race. The group combined for the school’s sixth Cross Country State Championship on the men’s side.
