AREA ROUNDUP

EAGLE, Idaho — Logos of Moscow took second place in Class 2A boys team scoring as multiple levels of Idaho state championship cross country competition were held in the midst of stormy weather at Eagle Island State Park on Saturday.

Top-20 finishers received medals.

John Henry Crapuchettes made a runner-up individual showing with a 5-kilometer time of 16 minutes, 40.09 seconds to lead the Knights to that 2A team result, trailing Hayden Smith’s 16:24.79 individual first-place finish that spearheaded a team victory for Rockland.

“(Crapuchettes) had a really smart race, paced himself well, looked confident the whole time,” Logos coach Paula Casebolt said. “He’s the kind of guy that’s running by you, and he’ll actually look at you and smile, but he’s serious about competing.”

Freshman Emma Darrah led the Logos girls with a 12th-place time of 20:36.11.

At the 5A level, Cora Crawford of Moscow (12th place, 19:52.72) and Lucas Clements of Lewiston (20th place, 16:45.91) medaled to lead area athletes.

Asotin 34, Northwest Christian 19

COLBERT, Wash. — Trailing 13-0 early in the third quarter, Asotin rallied to victory over Northwest Christian of Colbert behind four touchdowns scored by Peter Eggleston, clinching a Northeast 2B League title and concluding its regular season undefeated in the process.

After a scoreless opening quarter, the host Crusaders (7-2, 4-2) got on the board in the second, then notched a kickoff return touchdown on the opening play of the second half.

Eggleston caught a pass from Cody Ells to break the Panthers’ drought, then ran in three more touchdowns over the remainder of the game, totaling 167 rushing yards.

“Our offensive line responded well, and Peter carried the load for us,” Asotin coach Jim Holman said. “Of course, our defense played well all night long. Northwest Christian has an explosive offense, and our defense did a good job of limiting them.”

Asotin (9-0) will now enjoy a bye week before entering Washington Class 2B state playoff competition. Holman anticipates that his Panthers will receive a top-three seed.
