BALDWINSVILLE – Fresh off a second-place finish in the large-school division of its own Sept. 21 invitational meet, the Baldwinsville boys cross country team continued to run well head-to-head against Liverpool four days later.

The Bees bashed the Warriors 19-44, claiming eight of the top nine individual spots on the Durgee Junior High School course led by senior Jacob Guelli.

In a close race for the individual title Guelli, in 17 minutes 40.1 seconds, edged the 17:45.8 from Liverpool’s Joshua Vang, with three other Bees breaking the 18-minute mark.

Liam McOmber finished third in 17:51.5, exactly two seconds ahead of Wyatt Decker’s 17:53.5 as Logan Bolton made his way to fifth place in 17:59.1.

Ben Forman, sixth in 18:08.1, rounded out the scoring column but three more B’ville runners reached the top 10. London Premo was seventh in 18:14.9, with Ethan Millard eighth in 18:51.5 and Will Cornell going 19:03.1 for ninth place.

Over in the girls races, B’ville lost to Liverpool 26-33 as Kamryn Barton made it around the Durgee course in 19:55.7, a quick time but still nearly half a minute behind the winning 19:28.2 from the Warriors’ Taylor Page.

Ella Defio ran well, getting third place in 20:14.7 ahead of Kaitlyn Hotaling’s 20:23.1, with Yolanda Wei fifth in 20:30.6. But Liverpool took the next six spots to pull it out ahead of Mariah LeGrow’s 22:05.1 as Isabella Arria (22:38.8) and Makayla Fowler (22:38.9) nearly crossed the line together.

Running in the McQuaid Invitational in Rochester on Saturday in the Bob Bradley Premier Race, B’ville’s girls finished eighth out of 17 teams with Barton posting a time of 18:57.6 to get 31st place among individuals. The boys Bees were 20th led by Guelli’s clocking of 16:18.1.

B’ville will host both Henninger and Syracuse West on Wednesday afternoon to complete its SCAC Metro division schedule.
