 The Edmonson County High School cross country teams capped off a memorable season with strong performances at the KHSAA State Cross Country Championships this past weekend. Leading the way for ECHS was Aidan Meredith, who earned All-State honors with an outstanding race against the best in Kentucky. His performance highlighted a day of grit and pride for the Wildcats as both teams represented their school with determination and heart. ECHS boys exceeded expectations, as they entered the meet ranked 13th but finished 8th out of 35 state competitors. Jack Browning finished 43rd, followed by Blake Head in 63rd, Dayton Chidester was 109th, Zander Garrett 150th, and Tanner Bates close behind in 151st. Lance Lindsey rounded out the team’s effort, finishing 218th to secure valuable team points. There were 266 runners in the race.  Mollie Johnson and Alania Deweese. For the girls, Mollie Johnson turned in a strong race to place 33rd overall, while Alania Deweese finished 109th, helping ECXC close the season on a high note.  Aiden Meredith finished 13th in the state at the 2025 KHSAA state cross country meet. “Our runners left everything out there,” said Coach Brad Meredith. “They’ve worked hard all year, and today’s results show what commitment, hard work and being a team can accomplish. I am very proud of all of our athletes.” Aidan's top 15 finish is the first top 15 finish for a boy individual in 25 years. “Aidan had a great race. I’m so happy for him and very proud of him. It just shows how impressive finishing in the top 15 at the state meet is. You think of all the great runners we have had since I have been coaching. We have had boys teams finish as State Runner Up, top 4 teams, many top 10 team finishes and none of the athletes on those teams finished in the top 15. Its extremely difficult to accomplish. Everything has to kind of come together on one day , all the training for months for this one day. Aidan has made the jump from being good to elite.” Meredith said.  |
