The Portage Invitational is known as the mid-season state meet for cross country teams and if that is the case, then Saline should have a strong showing at MIS in November.

The boys finished with 185 points, only behind #1 ranked Northville with 127.

Four of the seven Hornet runners finished with PR’s at the race.

Samuel Jackson led Saline with a 10th place finish in 15:44.7, which tied for his PR he set at Jackson two weeks ago.

Truman Johnson came home 17th in 15:56.2 and Jason Whitton was 25th with a PR time of 16:06.6.

Andrew McNally came home with a PR time of 16:40 to place 58th
