East Hampton Boys and Girls Shine in Cross-Country

The East Hampton boys took first place and the girls finished second at the Bellringer invitational on Friday.

The meet was part of Bellfest, which featured all of East Hampton's fall sports teams at home.

Overall, the Bellringers had an outstanding day. The boys' soccer team defeated Westbrook, 7-0, while the girls played to a 4-4 tie in double-overtime against the Knights. In volleyball, the girls continued their strong start to the season, improving to 7-1 with a 3-0 victory over Valley Regional. The girls have won seven in a row and have lost only one set during that span.

In cross-country, Bill Lonsdale and Tom Grylka finished fourth and fifth to lead the Bellringers. Tommy Lupoli of Sheehan won the event with a time of 17:30.

For the girls, Lindsay Stoldt and Madison Boyce finished sixth and seventh for the Bellringers, who also had finishers in the nine through 13 spots. Still it wasn't enough to overcome Avon, which placed in four of the top eight positions to finish first overall. Coventry's Ellie Jean, a freshman, unoffically set a course record with a time of 20:03 to finish first.
