The Ridges Golf Course hosted the WIAA State Cross Country Championships Saturday. Plenty of local representation came in the girls Division 3 race.
Darlington claimed the Division 3 team title with a score of 92, edging Kohler (96) in one of the tightest finishes of the day. Aquinas (122) and Cochrane-Fountain City (133) followed close behind to round out the top four teams.
From the local contingent, Kewaunee senior Hannah Miller delivered a final standout performance, finishing third overall in 18:55.8 just behind Kohler’s Maggie Behler and Cochrane-Fountain City’s Addy Duellman. Miller’s top-three finish helped Kewaunee to a 10th-place team standing (211 points), marking a strong end to another successful season for the Storm.
Kewaunee also received solid runs from Natalie Miller (74th, 21:29.8), Kaylyn Martin (76th, 21:32.2), Noelie El Kout(97th, 22:07.7), Alison Szydel (115th, 22:39.1), Karla Swagel (129th, 23:18.4), and Alison Kuehl (134th, 23:40.5).
Elsewhere among Door and Kewaunee County programs, Sevastopol freshman Breiah Newton completed her first state meet in 66th place (21:14.0), giving the Pioneers a promising glimpse of what’s ahead.
