Rounding out the local boys programs in the team standings were Flower Mound in fourth (156), Marcus in sixth (173), Hebron in eighth (200) and Coppell in 13th (291).
In the girls meet, Marcus took fourth (106), with Hebron in seventh (203), Coppell in eighth (213) and The Colony in 12th (341).
Individually, The Woodlands' Brigham Hedges (15:18.20) picked up gold ahead of Hebron's Robert Domanic (15:20.50) and Friendswood's Ryan Teel (15:21.50).
