Jane Kuebrich of Ridgefield won the race, but Hanna Dyer of Columbia River won the meet.
Kuebrich, a sophomore, edged Woodland’s McKenna Flanagan by a second to win the top individual spot in a time of 21 minutes, 35 seconds over the 5,000-meter course at Vancouver Lake.
The one spot proved important as it allowed the Spudders to tie Columbia River in the team score 33-33 in the three-team meet. The tiebreaker goes to the team with the higher finishing sixth runner. That was River junior Hanna Dyer.
The Spudder boys swept to a team victory as Ciarnin McNeil (16:56) edged teammate Kyle Radosevich. Ridgefield’s varsity runners claimed seven of the top eight spots.
