VIRGINIA— Ely runners put up strong numbers late last week at the Rock Ridge Invitational to kick off the 2022 cross-country season. On a course at the Virginia Golf Course, Ely boys took second in an eight-school field, while the girls runners finished in third place among the ten schools that fielded girls’ teams.
In a field of 70 boys, Ely posted five runners in the top 25, including a 12th place finish for sophomore Caid Chittum, who led the Ely contingent with a time of 19:05.207. Senior Ben Cavalier wasn’t far behind, finishing 14th with a time of 19:22.156, while fellow senior Jake Cochran clocked in at 19:32.182, good for 16th. Sophomore Silas Solum finished in 19th with a time of 19:47.241.
On the girls’ side, eighth-grader Molly Brophy proved the top Ely finisher with a time of 22:23.12, good for eighth place in a 70-runner field. Senior Zoe Devine was the only other Ely runner to finish in the top 20, claiming 18th with a time of 22:55.203.
