TROY — Wilmington had 16 personal bests and three more season best efforts Saturday at the Troy Twilight Invitational cross country races.
“It was a fantastic night and we had two seniors break some time barriers,” coach Karen Heslop said.
Oliver McDermott ran a sub-18 minute for his race and Madilyn Brausch moved in to third place all-time on the WHS record list, Heslop said.
“We are continuing to chip away at our goals each week,” she added.
There were 10 PRs and three SBs for the high school runners and six PRs among the middle school group.
