Cargill Takes the Crown at Boys’ Cross Country

In a tightly contested Boys’ School Cross Country, Cargill House emerged as overall champions for 2025, edging out Chalmers by a colossal 300 points in the final standings. Hamilton placed third, with Wishart rounding out the competition.

The Year 1-2 races were held at Martyn Wilson Fields, with the older boys tackling the challenging College course. From the first whistle, competition was fierce, with runners battling for every position and valuable house points.

Chalmers dominated the early year groups, claiming clean sweeps in both Year 1 and Year 4, but Cargill’s consistent placings across all age groups proved decisive. Wishart secured notable wins in the senior races, including Year 6 Zach Lovell and Year 7 Henry York, while Hamilton celebrated victories in Year 2 and several strong podium finishes.
