MANCHESTER — In her first championship meet test, Pinkerton senior Britney Johnson came through, and it's a good thing she did.

Johnson, the soccer and track standout doubling in cross country for the first time, finished eighth overall as the Astros' third ruunner to pace the Astros to their third straight Division 1 title with 49 points to edge a young but talented Bishop Guertin team by six points.

Sophomore Meghan Cross paced Pinkerton, placing fifth in 19:35.3 on the challenging 5K Derryfield Park course while junior April Ciara was seventh in 19:44.6, three seconds in front of Johnson.

Rounding out Pinkerton's scoring was Jordan Vaillancourt in 12th and Maison D'Amelio in 17th.

Salem placed 10th in the 16-team field paced by rapidly improving freshman Emma Gannon, who was 21st overall. Londonderry, in 11th, was paced by sophomore Caitlin Boufford (25th0 and Kalin Gregoire (28th).

In the Division 2 meet, Windhame came in ninth and Sanborn was 17th. Sanborn freshman Morgan Bell was the top area finisher, coming in 29th.
