The two Adams Central cross country teams swept through the two-man Hokem Karum format and beat out the other five Adams and Wells County schools at Norwell High School.

For the boys, the Jets did not place their top team in the top four, but went 5th-7th-12th to squeak out the win over Bluffton and Bellmont by five points.
Bluffton’s top duo won the event.

South Adams had the second-best tandem.
In the girls’ race, it was a different story with the same result as the Jets had the top two pairs and it was just enough to beat the host Norwell Knights.
