Onalaska's Stephen Bottoms, right, makes his past Kalama's Kody Shriver for the lead in the District IV 1A Boys Cross Country Championships Saturday at Lewisville Park in Battle Ground. "I had a stomach-ache for half the race," said Bottoms, after a come-from-behind victory. "I caught up to him (Shriver) and I took over, cause I knew he was done."

BATTLE GROUND — Onalaska’s Stephen Bottoms started off in the middle of the pack, but worked his way back for a first-place finish and district title here Saturday in the District IV 1A Cross Country Championships.
Bottoms finished in 15 minutes, 59.56 seconds and overtook Kalama’s Kody Shriver (second, 16:06.84) for the win.
“This course is not very conducive to slow starters,” Onalaska coach Johnny Garcia said, adding that Bottoms is, sometimes, a slow starter. “We were nervous about whether Stephen would catch up to Kody and pass him, but he did.”
The top 20 individuals on both sides, as well as the top four teams, qualified for the State 1A Cross Country Championships Saturday at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco.
Toledo-Winlock’s boys finished in second, led by Mikhail Hopf (eighth, 17:10) and Blake Wood (ninth, 17:29). Caleb Rose (17:52, 17th), Matt Wallace (21st, 17:59) and Forrest Wallace (23rd, 18:02) will also run for Toledo-Winlock at state.
Josh Hunt finished in 10th (17:30) and Riley Girt 14th (17:40) to Onalaska, which came within five points of making state as a team.
“The reason we were that close, is Stephen Bottoms, Josh Hunt, Riley Girt and Jeffrey Harris (19:23) did an amazing job,” Garcia said.
Rochester’s Kenna Fosnacht took fourth place (20:26) and teammate Guadalupe Vazquez 12th (21:21) to qualify for state.
The Logger girls finished in seventh place, led by Bernadette Hayden’s 10th-place time (21:03). Kylea Johnson (16th, 21:58) will also run in Pasco.
