For the ones who know about the University of Louisville home course at Tom Sawyer State Park, it is what one could deem as a, "fast and flat," course, and what we saw on the results reflected that.

Several teams made the trek down south through Ohio to Kentucky to take part in one of the biggest meets in the area this past weekend.

Bellevue, Centerville, Findlay, Hilliard Darby, Lakota East, Medina, Milford, Moeller, Olen. Orange, Perrysburg, Rittman, Riverview East Acad., St. Xavier, Talawanda, Tippecanoe, and Wyoming.

From this group, countless season/personal bests were set along with a new OH #1, #2, and #3, and #5.

OH #1, US #4 - Alex Bruns (St. Xavier 2025) - 14:39.86 PB

OH #2 - Landon Kimmel (Tippecanoe 2026) - 14:46.51 SB

OH #3 - Luke Snyder (Rittman 2026) - 14:55.34 PB

OH #5 - Kasem Kaheal (Centerville 2025) - 15:10.38 SB

Landon Kimmel and Luke Snyder are now top 10 in the country for the junior class; US #7 and US #10, respectively.

On, the girls side, Brooke Chapman (Olen. Orange 2026) was the top finisher out of Ohio with a runner-up finish time of 17:38.21, with Bella Conforti (Olen. Orange 2027) just a few places behind her with a new personal best of 18:07.88.

Conforti's performance now puts her as the top underclassman in the state.
