The varsity boys cross country team finished in 8th Place at the OHSAA Division I State Championships on Saturday morning at Fortress Obetz and Memorial Park. The Bees finished with 250 points to knock off a handful of teams that were seeded higher and barely finished behind Mentor. Senior Zach Sohar led the team as he finished 53rd out of 178 runners despite losing his right shoe with a kilometer remaining in the race. Senior Logan Butsko (58th), sophomore Jackson Warfe (68th), junior Noah Palombo (85th), and senior Trent Schirmer rounded out the top 5.

On the girls side, seniors Alanya Yanmaz and Leah Bugner finished in 84th and 123rd place, respectively.
