SALEM -- The Salem cross country program's present and future were showcased Saturday at the 33rd annual Star Trax 5K Night Run.
Salem senior Luke Stephens topped the 369-runner field, covering the 3.1-mile race in 16 minutes, 52 seconds.
Beaver Local senior Luke Warrick was second. Stephens and Warrick both ran at the state cross country meet last season. Salem freshman Taven Tice was third.
Salem sophomore Addison Hopple was first out of 176 female runners in 18:33.1.
Former Salem standout Mallory Maher placed second and recent Salem graduate Laura Hovorka was third.
Hovorka and Hopple were the top two finishers on the Salem girls team that finished sixth at the state meet last fall. All seven Quaker runners from that team ran in Saturday's race.
This year's Star Trax had the most finishers since 2017 when there were 456.
Proceeds benefit the Salem cross country and track programs.
