Deluca’s cross country
SCASOI
begins on right foot
Dallas senior finished 11 seconds in front of Lake-Lehman
sophomore Dominic Hockenbury, third in the district last year
TOM ROBINSON
For The Dallas Post
The first day of the cross country sea-
son could not have gone much better for
Dominic DeLuca.
The Dallas senior covered the 3.1-mile
course at Letterkenny Fields in 16:46 to
lead a group of 222 runners while winning
the boys championship at the Cliff Robbins
Invitational on Aug. 31.
“It’s a big accomplishment,” Dallas cross
country coach Matt Samuel said. “Any time
you get a win in an invitational like that, it’s
satisfying but I think he has his eyes set on
the future and some bigger races down the
road.”
DeLuca led the way for a big day by the
entire Dallas program.
The Mountaineers won the varsity and
junior high boys championship and the var-
sity girls finished second, despite compet-
ing without multiple state medalist Regan
Rome.
There are more important meets ahead
in regular season and postseason compe-
tition, but the strength of the field at the
traditional season opener bodes well for
Dallas.
“It’s not how you start, it’s kind of how
you finish the season,” Samuel said. “But
you have to know where you're at and it’s a
good indication of things to come.
“We've all started out on the right foot
here.”
DeLuca finished second at the highly com-
petitive District 2 Class AA championships
last season when the Mountaineers took
fourth behind Scranton Prep, Tunkhannock
and Holy Redeemer. Tunkhannock and
Scranton Prep, which returns six of its top
eight runners, then finished fourth and fifth
in the state in Class AA.
“Those are pretty impressive things,”
‘ever had a team have,”
Hockenbury
Deluca
Samuel said of the state team finishes.
“They just happen to be in the same district
as us.
“Any time we can compete with those
guys and get the best of them, or at least
keep it close when they get the best of us,
it’s a pretty good result.”
Scranton Prep kept it close, but the
Mountaineers came out with the team title
when the finishes of its top five runners
totaled 70, one better than the Cavaliers.
Travis Mattson placed ninth, Bryce
Mattson 13th and Kyle Borland 15th for
the all-senior Dallas lineup. Brenden Ehret
was 35th, but 32nd among runners from full
teams, to complete the team score.
DeLuca got it all started by finishing 11
seconds in front of Lake-Lehman sopho-
more Dominic Hockenbury, who was third
in the district last year. DeLuca adds the
Robbins championship to a pair of confer-
ence cross country titles and a district title
he won in track season.
“It was a good way to start off, especially
knowing he still feels he can do even bet-
ter,” Samuel said.
The Mountaineers entered the season
feeling strong after their summer training.
“It was the smartest, most sensible
overall summer of training that I've
Samuel said.
