Mitchell Hubbard was the highest finisher for Port Townsend, taking seventh in 17:53.

Griffin Hoins was ninth in 17:56 and Xavier Frank was 10th for the Redskins in 17:57.

On the girls side Olympic notched 27 points, Sequim had 36 and Port Townsend ended up with 51.

The Wolves were missing defending Class 2A state champion Allison Cutting due to illness.

Taylor Roads won the race for Sequim in 20:59.

“Robin Hill is a difficult course, and that is a really good time,” Huff said of Roads.
