Aaron Sensenig and James Steinmetz represented the Dock Cross Country team well to end the season. The seniors had strong finishes at the PIAA State Championships Saturday on the famed and difficult Hershey course.
Sensenig ran 19:06 to place 127th overall in the 1A Division, better than half the field. The time was almost a full two minutes faster than he ran in the state meet two years ago. And, after finishing 12th at the District 1A Championships the week before, Sensenig was the ninth finisher from the district Saturday. Steinmetz clocked 20:00 in his first trip to the state meet. He finished 174th after navigating the tough hills of the course and putting together an impressive final mile. It was his first season of cross country, and just reaching states was an accomplishment. He then also performed far better than most first-time qualifiers at states.
Sensenig and Steinmetz are the lone seniors on this year’s Pioneers team.
