HELENA — Butte Central sophomore Conor McGee missed All-State honors by less than a second Saturday at the Class A State cross country meet at the Bill Roberts Golf Course.
McGee finished the 3-mile race in 16 minutes, 57.4 seconds. Frenchtown’s Gunnar Nabozney placed 15th, claiming the final All-State spot, in 16:57.2.
Whitefish won the team title with 96 points. Hamilton was second at 108. Butte Central placed 18th out of 20.
Still, BC coach Bob Johnson said he was happy with his team, which hadn’t had enough runners to be mentioned in the team standings in a decade.
“The boys ran awesome today,” Johnson beamed.
As an added bonus for the Maroons, they won’t lose any players to graduation.
Freshman Shannon Tempel capped an impressive season by placing 30th at state in 17:41. Also running for the Maroons were frehsman Connor Larson (20:35), sophomore Clay Stillwagon (20:36), junior Jarett Larson (21:46) and freshman Patrick O’Herron (27:31).
Glendive’s Layne Lantis won the race in 16:01.
Jarett Larson and O’Herron joined the team late in the season, giving the Maroons enough runners to be a team.
Corvallis won the girls’ race, led by Sadi Henderson’s victory in 18:37. Anaconda’s Olivia Wood placed seventh at 19:48. Butte Central didn’t have any girl runners.
Complete results from the Class A meet follow.
