Bower won the girls\u2019 race with a time of 18 minutes, 7.2 seconds, which according to the BHS athletic department is a new course record. The Eagle Valley duo of Samantha and Joslin Blair tied for second in 18:31.1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Bower\u2019s performance helped the BHS girls to a third-place team finish with 83 points. Fruita Monument and Glenwood Springs each finished with 77 points. Aspen was sixth in the girls\u2019 race with 121 points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Junior Kylie Kenny led the AHS girls by finishing 11th in 20:12.7. AHS junior Kendall Clark was two spots back in 13th, finishing in 20:25.3. A pair of Basalt freshmen in Sarah Levy (20:25.5) and Katelyn Maley (20:27.4) were 14th and 15th, respectively. AHS freshman Elsie Weiss also recorded a top-20 finish, coming in 19th in 20:44.5.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Neither Aspen nor Basalt recorded a team score on the boys\u2019 side, won by Summit with 68 points.

Sophomore Brenon Reed led Aspen by finishing 53rd in 19:07.9. Basalt junior Noah Allen led the Longhorns, finished a spot back in 54th in 19:08.4.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">Basalt volleyball beats Olathe; Aspen volleyball falls in three sets at Moffat<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Basalt High School volleyball team earned its second win of the season on Saturday by sweeping through visiting Olathe inside the BHS gymnasium.

It was a makeup from the Sheridan softball tournament late last month, with both teams competing in the championship game before an electrical issue forced the postponement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">BHS led that one 3-1 in the third inning before the lights went out, and lost it about two weeks later in the seventh inning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Now 8-1 overall and ranked No. 5 in Class 3A this week, Basalt is slated to play a doubleheader at Meeker on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Aspen softball (0-8) did not play Saturday.

BHS rallied to tie the game in the second half with each team having to settle for a draw.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Strive fell to 2-2-1 overall while Basalt moved to 1-3-1 overall with a trip to Moffat County coming up on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Aspen High School boys soccer team played to a 3-0 loss at Monarch on Saturday.
