Fresh from a championship performance in the Coach B Invitational Monday, the Hopkins girls’ varsity cross-country team was runner-up Thursday at the Delton Invitational at the Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners.

The Lady Vikings finished second to Paw Paw’s 45 team points with 73 in the 10-team field.

The Hopkins boys checked in fifth with 116 points, despite an individual medalist performance from junior Todd Henly with a time of 16:48.44=, the only harrier of the day to eclipse 17 minutes.

Hastings won that team race with a score of 37.

Senior Molly Thompson of Paw Paw was the only female harrier to complete the course in fewer than 20 minutes, checking in at 19:32. Hopkins senior Jasmine Fisher again led her team with a 21:05.93 time, good for fifth place.

Emma Helder also took a top 10 place, checking in ninth with a five-kilometer time of 21:51.83.

Senior Laura Velderman continued her recent determined effort to regain her past prowess by finishing 11^th, Alyssa Beilby was 20^th and Gracie DeZeeuw 28^th.

Backing Henley was Dan Rausch, who was 11^th in 18:28.69. Zach Nutter was 22^nd in in 19:10.77. Joe Ludlam was 58^th and Jake Pastoor was 66^th.
