BOULDER CITY — While the field of Division 2A Nevada State Cross Country Championships did not contain any Elko County teams, several individuals had strong showings.
Girls
On the girls side, Wells freshman Mille Cromley ran top-10 — finishing ninth with a time of 24:13.7.
West Wendover sophomore Keyla Escareno led the Lady Wolverines — who placed second at regionals but didn’t run enough girls at state for a team score — with a 22nd-place time of 27:02.6.
The Lady Leopards gained another individual qualification from sophomore April Bochman, who ran a 27:02.6 for 27th place.
