Pennsylvania College of Technology teams and individuals in several fall sports had impressive outings over the past week:
Men’s/women’s cross-country
On Saturday at the United East Preview, the men’s team posted its first victory since Oct. 13, 2017, as it scored 41 points to top an 11-team field. Its last conference championship came in 2012 when it was a member of the Penn State University Athletic Conference, capping a 10-year championship run. Also, on Saturday, the women’s squad was sixth of nine teams.
Mitchell Campbell, of Riegelsville, led the men with a fourth-place individual finish in 29:08 over an 8K course and freshman Elaina Brady, of Big Cove Tannery, finished 13th in 33:22 over a 6K course to lead the women.
“Our entire men’s top seven ran well on a challenging course. They grouped together well. It was a quality mid-season effort,” second-year coach Tom Leeser said.
