St. Paul's School hosted the Lakes Region Invitational on Wednesday, September 17 with Brewster Academy, Cardigan Mountain School, Holderness School, Kimball Union Academy, New Hampton School, Proctor Academy, Tilton School, and Vermont Academy. With over 100 runners in the boys event, St. Paul's had its first taste this year of big-field racing ahead of traveling to the Manchester Invitational Saturday, September 20. Several packs clustered effectively: Chappy Carroll '27, Silas Collins '28, Owen Gorenc '27, Charlie Harvey '29, Linus Krenkel '27, and Langston Williams '27 were all within 15 seconds of first-place finisher Daniel Hong '27; Tucker Eddy '28, Dash Hamilton '29, Rhys Henrikson '26, Grant Lebar '27, and Harry Moyer '27 finished in succession within 16 seconds of each other; Jonah Farkas '27, Andy Huffer '29, Wrenn Ragsdale '26, Jeb Stegall '27, and Jason Zhuang '27 were also in adjacent spots and within 16 seconds of each other. A strong overall day helped St. Paul's finish first of the nine competing schools.

Congratulations on first St. Paul's School races for Remi Costas '28, Quattro Glover '29, Dash Hamilton '29, Andy Huffer '29, Lucas Kurd '29, Alex Lamotte '29, Nicholas Park '29, Henry Strong '29, and Tigger Tanglertsumphun '29!
