 In Monday's Daily News, The Sports Staff writes that Notre Dame's boys cross country team took third in the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Championships at Sunken Meadow State Park.

ND finished just a point behind second-place Barker.

Kevin Palwak finished in 18:05 to lead the way for the Fighting Irish, taking 18th. Quin O'Connor was injured during the race and finished 24th.

"Quin has been our top runner and was expected to finish in the top 10," ND coach Eric Geitner told The Daily News.

Oakfield-Alabama's Kevin Grazioplene was the top finisher of all local runners, taking eighth in 17:35.
