CONNELL -- The little guys came up big Saturday at the Connell Invite, with Waitsburg-Prescott's Seth Deal and the Tri-Cities Prep boys coming out the big winners.

Deal, who placed fourth in the state B championship last year as a sophomore, zipped through the 5-kilometer course in 16 minutes, 51.2 seconds to top the boys side. He finished 20 seconds ahead of Moscow's Eric Storey, with Sunnyside's Juan Reynoso (17:11.8) and Kennewick's Joseph Schuldheisz (17:12.2) not far off the pace.

The Tri-Cities Prep boys not only won the 2B/1B team title -- the race was scored in 4A/3A, 2A, 1A and 2B/1B classes -- but also posted the lowest overall score with 85 points against 113 for Sunnyside. Nick Lumetta (seventh) and Nick Fong (eighth) topped the defending B state champion Jaguars, who placed all five scoring runners in the top 30.

On the girls side, Richland's JV squad won the 4A/3A class, and TC Prep won the B scoring.
