The Horton Griffins cross country team travelled to Point Pleasant Park in Halifax on Monday and came home with some fantastic results.

The senior girls team of Sophie Duncan, Eliza Stokesbury-Price, Maggie Graves, Georgia Williams and Rachel Veale ran superbly in a silver medal finish highlighted by a 10th place finish by Sophie.

The Intermediate boys team of Jacob White, Connor Amero, Angus Sircom-Brown, Ewan Miner and Zaki Velasco shocked the crowd with an unbelievable gold medal performance highlighted by a 7th place finish for Jacob and an 8th place finish for Connor.

The senior boys dealt the most dominant team performance in NS high school history by claiming the gold with the lowest total score recorded to date. Team members Silas Conlin-Morse, Brett King, Milo Sircom-Brown, Kalan Mockler, Tavish Gerrits, Drew Morrison and Oliver Hubka etched their names in the record books with an all time low score of 24 thanks to a 1st place finish by Silas, 5th for Brett, 8th for Milo and 10th for Kalan.

Congratulations to all Griffin runners but especially our graduating grade 12s, Sophie, Eliza, Maggie, Brett, Milo, Kalan and Drew who gave it their all during the last 4 seasons and have been paramount in creating a running culture here at Horton.

Well done Griffins!
