    RIPLEY - This past Saturday with temperatures in the low 40's the Whiteoak Wildcats participated in the Southern Hills League Championships at Ripley High School.

     The Lady Cats took home third place out of the 10 school league finishing behind Ripley and Peebles.

     Leading the way for Whiteoak was senior Felicia Stevens as she finished in eighth place to earn All-SHL honors for the 4th consecutive year.

     Closely behind was Leanna Lomske who braved the cold air to finish an impressive 16th place, just missing the all-league cutoff by one place. Clarissa Johnson finished 19th, Jennah Lomske was 23rd and Haley Bingamon was 48th.

     Coach Doug Hughes was very happy with the girls' effort.

     "The girls ran well and gave it all they had. It's not easy running a fast pace in 40 degree weather, and they ended up with their highest league finish in at least the last 10 years. Felicia (Stevens) became the only girl in the entire league to earn All-SHL honors all four years and three other girls were very close to earning All-SHL."

      On the boys side, Whiteoak was led by Mark Crowe who ran his best race of the year by finishing 18th out of 69 runners to narrowly miss all-league status. Nick Eldridge was 28th, Tyler Roberts was 52nd, Matt Forsythe 57th, Steven Oney 58th and Anthony Lomske 63rd.

      Whiteoak will participate in the Division III District race at Rio Grande this Saturday.    Boys will run at 2:00 and the girls will run at 3:30.[[In-content Ad]]
