The Red Wolves finished third behind Chapel Hill and East Chapel Hill. In a sprint to the finish line, Cedar Ridge Anne Morrell edged out East Chapel Hill’s Sara Oren for 10th place, meaning Morrell was named to the All-Big 8 Conference team for the second year in a row. Allison Musty, Zoe Wade, Ariana Solis, Jill Myler, Ruby Lapham and Sarah Tucker also ran for the Cedar Ridge women. Next week, Cedar Ridge will compete in the 3A Mideast Regionals at Northwood High School in Pittsboro.
