BROOKVILLE — Brayden Friar and Leo Paterniti claimed the top two spots at Brookville, helping the Braford boys track and field team claim second place on Tuesday.
Friar claimed first with 17:26.5 and Paterniti crossed the finish line just under 20 seconds later, 17:45.72, as Bradford beat Brookville, 30-26, but lost to Punxsutawney 37-20.
After The Owls took the top two spots the Blue Raiders took the next four places in Ty Fiscus, Evan McKalsen, Cole Householder, and Brady Means. Chris Setree placed seventh for Brookville before Bradford’s Marcus Terwilliger took eighth with 19:22.72, his best race of the year.
Bradford’s Evan Troisi was tenth (19:39), Kadyn Tessena was 14th (20:14), Joe Caruso placed 16th (20:29), Evan Soto finished 21st (21:59) and Cavan Drake was 25th (24:51).
“We salvaged one win but we should have done better,” said Bradford boys coach Tom Tessena. “Our top two guys ran well and so did Marcus Terwilliger but our other guys were a long way off what they have run this year. We need to pick it up right now if we are going to have any chance to win Districts this year.”
The Bradford Middle School team continued their winning ways, stretching their record to 7-0. They defeated Punxy 20-40 and Brookville 23-33.
Miles Hawk placed third (12:58), Maverick Smith ended in fourth (13:30), Nikolai Frontino was fifth (13:37) and Xavier Frontino finished sixth (13:39), sealing the win for Bradford.
