4A District 4 2009
In a 21-minute span, somewhere along the five-kilometer course on the College of Southern Idaho campus, Twin
Falls cross country runner Stephanie Filas found an extra three-tenths of a second.
It seems miniscule, but that three-tenths made the difference in the Class 4A District IV championship Wednesday
as the Bruins girls scored 30 points to edge out Jerome's 31.
Filas finished ninth place in 21 minutes, 13.3 seconds to beat Jerome's Lucia Pacheco by 0.3 seconds. Filas and
Pacheco were neck-and-neck down the final stretch, along with Twin Falls' Hannah Biedenbach and Lizzie
Hegstrom.
"Our three girls outraced (Pacheco) into the chute and that was huge," said Twin Falls coach Marty Grindstaff.
Those dramatics came moments after an exciting finish by individual winner Amanda Ward of Twin Falls, who
crossed in 19:34. Ward, a junior, was flanked almost the entire race by Jerome sophomore Mikesell Clegg and
junior Mackenzie Chojnacky. Ward finally broke away down the stretch, with Clegg nipping at her heels at 19:35.
"Jerome always gives us a run for our money," said Ward. "We knew that if we saw them, our girls had to go get
Jerome today, and that's how we came out on top."
Ward's win comes after finishing first and second as a freshman and sophomore, respectively, in the Bruins'
former conference, Class 5A Region Four-Five-Six.
"I always have a good sprint at the end of my race, but I didn't know what the Jerome girls had left," Ward said. "I
just tried to get a little bit ahead, and then I just went for it."
Temperatures were in the mid-50s, and the overcast sky threatened but never dropped more than a sprinkle.
Perfect running conditions, according to Grindstaff, who called it "a great day."
Indeed, it was a great day for Twin Falls, who also won the boys team title, although it lacked the drama of the girls
race.
The Bruins boys placed four runners in the top five: Alex Schenk, Erik Harris, Tyson Warth and Karl Lundgren.
Senior Chase Caulkins of Wood River distanced himself early and cruised to the individual title in 16:41.
"It was nice and flat and fast," Caulkins said of the course. "We started off going pretty fast, but then after the first
mile they started to settle down, and that's when I decided to go. Right near the end they started to come back up,
but I just held on until the end."
The boys and girls teams from Twin Falls, Jerome and Wood River qualified for the Class 4A state meet, which will
be run Oct. 31 at Circling Raven Golf Course in Worley, 27 miles south of Coeur d'Alene. The Twin Falls boys will
be seeking their third consecutive state title, after winning the past two in Class 5A.
Coach,
Here are the complete results. I see that you have the partials from the paper. Thanks for all you do for Idaho XC.
The kids love this website!!!
