It was a dominating performance by Quesnel runners at the Cross Country Running Zone Championships in Prince George.
Correlieu won both the Senior Girls and Senior Boys team titles.
Starting off with the girls, there were four Quesnel runners out of the top five led by Olivia Baptiste and Olivia Moody in first and second.
Kyra Teetzen and Avery Drew were 4th and 5th respectively.
Cole Dinsdale was the gold medalist in the Senior boys race.
He was more than a minute clear of 2nd place finisher Brandon Balbirnie from Peter Skene Ogden in 100 Mile House.
Getting back to Correlieu….Dane Jacobsen was 5th.
Scott Sargent, still only in Grade 10, was 9th and the other member of the team Jared Hamelin was 10th.
