Varuhan Edwards was our fourth finisher in 7th overall, while Zach Falzone rounded out the THS scoring in 10th place overall. 

Wilton Invitational Summary

Freshman

Our Frosh kicked things off as 12 of them competed against only their peers today. A total of 12 teams and 133 runners were in this race. Parker Seastrong started off in about 20th place, while working his way up throughout the race. Teammate Nolan Carbone did the same. Seastrong came in to the final field with about 600 meters to go having moved up to  third place. He managed to overtake a New Canaan athlete with about 400 meters to go to end up in second place to pace the THS freshman. Carbone moved up nicely as well, before falling a bit off the pace in the final stages to place 9th overall. Their times to make the top 10 were 8:28 and 8:54 respecitvely. Next for the team was Michael Kay in 24th (9:18), followed by  Jaspreet Singh in 28th (9:22) and William Lennon in 56th (10:13). 

 The freshman placed fourth as a team with 92 points behind league rivals New Canaan and Greenwhich. 

 JV

 This turned out to be a very exciting race as from the beginning THS had four runners near the front. Senior Troy Gromley led the pack as he picked off runners in the second half of the race to finish a  very strong 2nd overall in the JV race. His time was 19:03. A trio of Eagles followed just behind throughout much of the race, as Sophomores Braden Fruin and Patrick Allen were joined by Johannes Rhysse. Allen had started the first mile slowly but quickly passed many athletes to put himself in contention. Jack Pellicone was just behind this group and likewise he ran a strong second half of the race, passing many runners along the way. 

 In the end Fruin placed 6th (19:24) with Allen right behind in 7th *(19:27). Pellicone was our fourth runner in the top 10 as he ended up in 10th place (19:30). Our fifth scorer was Liam Hilleary who was 22nd overall (20:13). Rhysse had a difficult last 3/4 mile as he ended up in 38th place (21:00) after being in the top 10 for much of the race. 

The JV ended up with 47 points. That was just behind the winners and league rivals from Staples who recorded 41. Still it was a fine showing by our JV with a total of 17 teams in the competition. A total of 183 runners finished the JV race. 

 Varsity

As the day progressed it became hotter and hotter and the Varsity had the toughest conditions with the temperature at nearly 80 with high humidity. Bronson Vo and Mohammed Abunar got out well as both were in the top 10 after the first mile. David Carillo had a somewhat slow start but had a terrific second half of the race. Vo got as high as 6th place before succumbing to a very bad blister on the back of his ankle. He managed to hold on and place 12th despite the extra pain. Meanwhile Abunar ran very strong at the end to place 8th as our top finisher with a very good time of 17:01. Carillo was right behind in 10th finishing in 17:07, as the top 10th grader in the race. Also of note is that the winner of Tuesday's race from Wilton was behind all three of these runners, while the second finisher in Tuesday's race finished right between Abunar and Carillo. 

Zach Falzone was our 4th finisher as he persevered through some heat related issues to place 80th (19:26) while Ryan Klaiber was our final scorer in 19:36., for 84th place.

As with the JV race, there were 17 teams in the race. THS ended up 4th with 176 points, as Staples won with 90. 147 runners completed the Varsity race today. 

The Boys XC team started out the season 3-0 with wins over Wilton. Warde and Brien McMahon. Bronson Vo, David Carillo and Mohammed Abunar paced the team taking 3rd, 4th and 5th overall in the meet. Our other scorers were Tommy Pittagora and Ryan Klaiber.
