In her nomination of Moore, coach Ariel Davids told the Beacon, “Owen is a freshman this year and has transitioned into High School Cross Country in an outstanding way. Owen has worked incredibly hard this last summer building mileage and aiming to run sub 20 minutes in his first 5k. Owen exceeded all expectations and ran an 18:59. In his most recent race on September 28, Owen ran an 18:07. Owen is currently our #1 runner on Varsity and continues to break through any barriers.”


Davids added, “Owen works incredibly hard to achieve all of his personal goals in Cross Country all while maintaining A's in the classroom. Owen has been a great addition to the team and to PHS. We are incredibly excited to continue to see Owen's times drop and to see his successes in his academic career.”
