Mark Mullelly and Erin Franklin win nicely
3.0 Miles on wooded, twisting trails
Warm, Humid
Mark Mullelly, Upper Moreland, and Erin Franklin, Wissahickon,
showed
some early season promise with convincing wins in the Viking
Invitational at Tamanend Park, Bucks County, PA on Friday afternoon
in
muggy conditions on the 3.0 mile wooded course.
Mullelly's 15:59 was 13 seconds up on O'Hara's Joe Francisco. Mullelly
had a breakthrough race in the spring, getting fourth in the 3200
with a
9:22. O'Hara's boys put four in the top twelve to take team honors
over
Central Bucks East 55 to 63.
Franklin, who ran #2 behind last year's state champ Paige Miller,
and
finished out of the medals at states, apparently has stepped it
up a
notch this season as she dominated CB East's Val Myers by a full
minute,
taking the race in 18:49. Wissahickon easily took the team competition
by placing six in the top 11, with a 2:29 spread between one and
five.
O'Hara Danielle Schopf did not compete for O'Hara.
