Ronan boys win divisional cross country title

Cross country teams from across Lake County competed in their last meet before state last week. The Polson team hosted the Western A Fall Classic that had teams from both the former Northwestern and Southwestern divisions. This was the first year they had a combined divisional race. After the JV races, the varsity girls had a chance to show their skills. The Polson girls have been competing tough all year, and were trying to win the overall team title. Coming in first for the Polson team was Ryan Harrop, who finished in third place. A few seconds later, Malia Seeley came in fourth. Freshman Molly Sitter came in seventh overall, and 14 seconds later, Quinn Motichka came in 20th with a personal best time of 21:12. Tessa Nunlist, Natalee Wheeler, and Josey Motichka followed her. Even with three girls in the top 10, Polson placed third as a team behind Corvallis and Whitefish.
