By: Ed Weaver / September 13, 2017

Senior Anna Bleggi won the girls race in 24:39, Athens' Emily Arnold (25:01) was 2nd, Wyalusing's Catherine Brown (25:59) was 3rd, Athens' Selkie Bishop (26:56) was 4th, and Athens' Caitlyn Powell (26:59) rounded out the top 5.

"The teams ran well. We raced against a strong Wyalusing team," said Wellsboro head coach Ron Brought. "They are very fast and very well coached. They're perennial top runners in the NTL so to come out and finish right behind them isn't a bad day. The runners performed pretty well overall but we definitely have room for improvement."
In the Middle School race the Wellsboro girls lost to Athens 22-33 and beat Wyalusing, who didn't have a full team. Wellsboro's boys did not have a full team.
The Varsity team's start their seasons at 1-1. The teams will be back in action on Tuesday, September 19 on the road for a tri-meet with Troy and Northeast Bradford at Northeast Bradford.
