Ridgeview’s Albert Hesse earned one of the individual spots in Saturday’s Class 5A state cross-country championship meet by placing fourth in the Oct. 29 district meet.

Hesse’s time of 15 minutes, 54.9 seconds trailed only three runners from defending state champion Summit in finishing fourth on the 5,000-meter course at Juniper Golf Course, 13 seconds behind victorious Thomas Schoderbek.

Overall, the Ridgeview boys finished in fourth place with 111 points while Redmond was fifth with 123 points. Summit led the way with 19 points.
