FHSAA Class 3A Region 1 cross country, Friday, November 13, 2026, Cecil Field, Jacksonville.

Bishop Kenny won the Class 3A Region 1 girls title at Cecil Field on Friday morning with 39 points, 15 ahead of Chiles. Leon won the boys with 71, 37 clear of Bishop Kenny.

Both individual races were close. Chiles sophomore Emma-Claire Tanenbaum won the girls in 18:05.1, 1.1 seconds ahead of Bishop Kenny's Jillian Jakab. Ponte Vedra senior Luke Ross won the boys in 15:16.1, 1.4 seconds ahead of Jonathan Kiros of Chiles.

It was a fast morning. Each of the top 14 girls ran a season best, and so did 17 of the top 25 boys.

Girls: Bishop Kenny by 15, Tanenbaum by a second

We had Chiles first and Bishop Kenny second. Bishop Kenny flipped it. Jakab was second, junior Camila Giles third and sophomore Rebecca McEnany fifth, all in season bests, and Alexandra Lumpkin (10th) and Emily McEnany closed it out for 39.

Chiles was second with 54 behind Tanenbaum, Kaia Ables (sixth) and Chloe Molen (eighth). Ponte Vedra was third with 69 on freshman Piper Ross in fourth.

Fort Walton Beach was fourth. Fleming Island came from eighth on our list to fifth with 184, and Gulf Breeze was sixth. Stanton and St. Augustine took the last two spots. St. Augustine scored 237 without a runner in the top 30 and finished 24 points ahead of Leon. These are the eight teams we picked.
