Alex Phillip picked up his fourth win of the season at yesterday's Youngstown Region meet. The senior from St. Vincent-St. Mary went 16:31.22 for a nine second gap over runner-up, Micah Blair of Woodridge in the Division II contest.
More important than the victory, Phillip says he's peaking at the right time as he prepares for next weekend's State Championship in Hebron. Phillip is expected to be in the mix for the individual win and his Fighting Irish squad will look to contend for the team title.
