GHSA Cross Country State Championshp - Class A 2012

The Athens Academy boys took home their first ever Team State title this Saturday at the Class A Cross Country Championships held down in Macon. The Spartans had been the favorite since the Week 2 team rankings were released and won by a 48 point margin of victory over runnerup Darlington.  Landmark Christian is 'Queen of the Hill' again in A Girls Cross Country defending their 2011 title behind the amazing duo of freshman Kathryn Foreman and senior Lindy Long. Reilly Friedman of Galloway (soph) was not to be denied of his title and he cruised to his first of what could be many Individual Championships and frosh Foreman of Landmark Christian ran away with the Girls title.

The Class A Public School State Races provided an opportunity for the rural schools to shine competing on a level playing field. Georgia Military Prep and Towns County won the Team Championships while Bryton Wenzel of Baconton Charter and Ansley Vardeman of Towns County took the Individual titles.
