Girls - Chelsea Ley (Jr. / Kingsway Reg.)

Running 17:24 and breaking her own course (17:35) is impressive on any day. But to do it in the monsoon like conditions that prevailed at the SJ Sectional on Saturday makes it even better. Chelsea Ley makes her second appearance as Girls ROW after her dominating (45 sec.) win in the Gr. 3 race at Delsea. Next up for Chelsea, the Group 3 Championships at Holmdel on Saturday 11/15.
