     Twin Falls had a slew of ninth graders filling out the 2-3-4-5 positions in the 56-runner girls’ varsity race, just ahead of Wood River sophomore Amy Cantrell (21:53). Cantrell posted her best time by a full 27 seconds to capture sixth place overall.

     Wood River senior Sam Burns (18:22) recorded his best time of the season by 13 seconds to place sixth overall of 110 boys at Minico.

     Thirty-seven Wood River cross country runners attended the Minico meet as a warm-up for the Great Basin Conference state-qualifying six-school run today, Wednesday, Oct. 22 at Twin Falls Golf Club (Muni).

     The girls’ race begins at 4 p.m. and boys’ race at 4:45 p.m.
