Cory's Stories: There was no stopping Abdalah. Not even a defending state champion  |  Elizabeth Chikotas had a plan for each part of the course. Winning was the final part  | From missing a chance to race at state... to a state champ with a course record | Unionville reverses states fortunes with big-time run by frosh Elizabeth Edwards | A fast first mile for Dom Deluca - then cruise control. (Then it is hopefully on to Foot Lockers) | Tony Russell pushed and pulled his Henderson teammates to the title |  A good start for Griffin Molino... and an even better finish |
