Coronado's Ollie Horton broke his own course record to win a second straight 4A title
The Daily Colorado Springs team
Coronado senior Ollie Horton broke his own course record Saturday at Norris Penrose Event Center, running 14 minutes, 40.6 seconds to win a second straight 4A boys title. That's nearly 8 seconds faster than last year's 14:48.1, and the day's fastest time in any classification. "I was thinking about last year the whole race," he told CHSAA.
Summit took the 4A boys team title with 62 points, ahead of Durango at 81, with Coronado third. The Classical Academy girls added their 18th state title as senior Vivian Jack won the 4A girls race.
