ATHOL — Senior Sydney Beckle and freshman Kylie Calderone both qualified for state after racing to third and sixth place finishes, respectively, at the 4A Intermountain League district championship held this past Thursday at Farragut State Park.

Beckle finished the 5,000-meter course in 20 minutes and 41 seconds while Calderone trailed not too far behind with a time of 20 minutes and 54 seconds. Junior Matisyn Stiern was just one spot shy of state, finishing eighth in 21 minutes and 21 seconds, one second behind Coeur d'Alene Charter freshman Emmaline Carr.

On the boys side, juniors Ethan Cowell (19:06.07) and Micah Thomson (19:28.82) finished 10th and 11th respectively to lead the Badgers. Fellow junior Colten Cohen was 16th with a time of 20 minutes and one second.
