PA stories from NXN and Foot Locker

It was a great day for PA in New York. On Long Island at the Foot Locker Northeast Regional, North Penn's Brad Miles became the first PA harrier since Dan Coval in 1998 to win the race - going 15:52.8 in cold and windy conditions. Four places later, Mount Lebanon senior Rad Gunzenhauser was the 5th qualifer for San Diego, going 16:05.7, and Ryan Gil, North Allegheny, was 8th in 16:10.8. Sara Sargent was never worse than 8th in the girls' race, and that is where she comfortably punched her San Diego ticket, going 18:42.2.
 

And Jacy Christiansen, a junior from New Hampshire, finished 5th and qualified as an individual. She is the youngest of the Christiansens who ran so well for Greenville HS in PA. Older sister Jesi and older brother Jed, each won state titles, Jesi in XC and Jed in Track. Jesi graduated in 2003, Jed in 2005. A story from when they moved in the summer of 2005.
