Her name is Braetan Peters. Her title is ‘Braetan Peters, District Champion’.
It has a certain ring to it, doesn’t it?
On Saturday morning at Big Spring High School, Peters captured a rare District Three Class A cross country championship for Annville-Cleona High School. The junior covered the 3.1-mile course in a time of 20:08.4.
Peters started the race strong, and began distancing herself from the rest of the field near the midway point, before pulling away near the end. Peters’ average mile-split was timed at 6:28.5.
Peters’ showing helped the Little Dutchmen to a third-place showing in the Class A team competition. It also qualified her for next weekend’s PIAA Cross Country Championships in Hershey.
A multi-sport performer, Peters also starred on the hockey field for Annvillee-Cleona this fall, racking up four goals.
