Brandt Moore of Bellevue Marquette took second, 23 seconds back, and third-place Riley Bly of Prince of Peace was another 20 seconds behind. Codie Adams of Camanche (18:04) and Eric Sikkema of Prince of Peace (18:21) rounded out the top five.
With four of its runners finishing between seventh and 12th, however, Marquette edged the Irish 40-45 for the team title.
