This year\'s second Tuesday night meet at Fork Union\'s Estes Athletic Center turned into the first and a much larger one as the first scheduled Tuesday meet was cancelled due to inclement winter weather last week. With 20 teams on hand for the meet, the Estes Athleti Center was packed for great competition. The Hardy Invitational is named after long-time retired head track coach at Fred Hardy Jr. Later in the week on Friday afternoon, Hardy\'s father, long-time University of Richmond coach Fred Hardy Sr. passed away. Our condolences go out to the Hardy family.

Culpeper County senior Devin Cornwall and Albemarle junior Rachel Rose rolled to dominating victories on the challenging Woodberry Forest Invitational 5K course. Cornwall, fresh off his newly earned #1 ranking in the state and course record breaking performance at Loriella Park two weeks ago, won the boys\' race with ease by a 38 second margin with his 16:26.31 clocking. The Western Albemarle boys (45 pts) won the team title as they were led by race runner-up Will Massie who covered the course in a time of 17:04.50. Rose won by even a wider margin of 62 seconds with her swift time of 18:51.39. Rose was not on anyone\'s radar coming into this fall as a challenger to the state crown but with her early season performances she currently finds herself ranked #2 in Group AAA. Second place finisher Samantha Stafford (19:54.03) of Western Albemarle had to settle for a second place finish for her team as well as the #7 state ranked Brooke Point (47 pts) girls narrowly defeated the #6 state ranked Lady Warriors (48 pts) by a mere point to score a mild upset over the defending Group AA state champs.

The state of Virginia will be sending two representatives to this year\'s Foot Locker Nationals in Hayfield senior Melissa Dewey and Western Branch freshmen Aurora Scott. Dewey and Scott were among the top eight nationals bound finishers in the girls\' seeded race at the Foot Locker South Regional Meet held at McAlpine Greenway Park in Charlotte, North Carolina.
