Carrollton Orthopedic Invitational 9/12/15

Coach Moore's Report

Titan Runners Take on Top Teams from State and Neighboring States in Carrollton

The championship race division at Saturday's Carrollton Orthopedic Invitational brought top Georgia teams from all classifications as well as teams from Florida and Alabama. The Titan boys finished 9th of 25 teams while the girls were 10th in a 20-team field. The hilly Carrollton course will host the state meet on Nov. 7th. 

Mackenzie Morse once again ran first on the team, taking 32nd overall (21:21) just 15 hours after losing a race against two angry yellow jackets. Morse got outstanding support from fellow Lady Titans, five of whom finished within 25 spots. Sophie Brown (57th in 21:59) edged Gabby Huff-Streiter (59th in 22:03). Courtney Jones (70th in 22:18), Melanie Bowden (78th in 22:24) and Kate Mattison (82nd in 22:37) formed a formidable pack, with Hollis Brown (92nd in 22:49) and Anna Cobb 108th in 23:12) rounding out a great team effort. 

In the boys' race, Thomas Moore (7th overall in 16:56) continued to lead the Titans. Anthony Potts ran strong, taking 33rd in 17:40. Dawson Frey took 70th in 18:17, just ahead of fellow freshman Brady Kalessa (73rd in 18:21). Andrew Cowick raced fifth (90th in 18:30). Austin Joost (123rd in 18:53) and Jacob Ash (157th in 19:32) contributed top-seven finishes. Wanya Newton (181st in 20:02) and Jon Hobus (206th in 21:02) rounded out the Titan varsity.
