Sophomore Katie Figliomeni was 13th in the 3.0-mile race (19:10.9). Junior Ellie Gross (19:44.8) and sophomore Melissa Jachim (19:48.7) were 35th and 36th with junior Eva Bednard a nearby 40th (19:51.3).

The 17-team field had one combined race after nearby lightning forced the race time to be delayed.

The Trojans (172 points) finished eight points behind sixth-place Hersey. Downers Grove South (26), fifth in Class 3A last year and just 10 points from third place, won the team title by 89 points over second-place Prospect.
