www.leonetiming.com/2014/XC/States/

Pittsford Mendon’s Boys repeated their state championship scoring only 55 points to win Class B with an average time of 16:48.5 which was 25 seconds faster than 2nd place  Bayport-Bluepoint of Long Island  at 96 points 17:13.7.  (Mendon only beat Brighton at Section V Championships on average time by less than 13 seconds).  In merged results Mendon took 3rd behind Fayetteville-Manlius of the Syracuse area and Shenendehowa of the Albany area.  In their interchangeable-parts team - the only member who was in the same team slot from last week was Isaac Goodman who was their fastest again, with Griffen Hess and Henry Burton,  (who both beat Goodman at Counties), just seconds behind, then came Nathan Lawler and David Azzara who switched with Kevin Dooley and Evan Feigel from last week for the 4th & 5th scoring positions.  Congrats on a great job by the Mendon team and coaching staff lead by Chris Compson.
