MOULTON, Ala. – The AHSAA State Cross Country Championships were held at the Oakville Indian Mounds in Moulton Saturday morning and for the second straight year, the Cold Springs Lady Eagles left with a blue map. The Lady Eagles dominated this year’s 1A-2A competition, outpacing Bayshore Christian by 37 points to win their third state championship in four years. Reagan Parris claimed a state crown of her own, placing first with a time of 19:51.85. Finishing just behind her in second and third were her teammates Macie Huffstutler (19:54.91) and Paizley Whitlow (20:04.51). Claire Huffstutler earned a ninth-place finish with a time of 20:53.55.
The Eagles brought home some hardware in the 1A-2A Boy’s race as well. Ethan Edgeworth finished first to claim this year’s individual championship with a time of 15:53.67 and helped lead Cold Springs to a second-place finish in the 1A-2A race just behind Bayshore Christian.

In other local action, the Cullman Bearcats earned a fourth-place finish in this year’s 6A Boy’s race thanks in large part to performances from Troy Adkison and Andure Barnett.
