Brayden Packard of American Fork after winning the Border Wars Utah Qualifier.
Brayden Packard of American Fork made a huge splash in Utah after transferring from Washington to finish his high school career. The Senior and BYU commit won four of his six races, and he was able to beat out nationally-ranked Creed Thompson in his final XC race. Although Packard didn't break his PR of 14:39.90 in the 3 Mile this year, he came awfully close to it by running 14:48.50 at the Timpanogos XC Invitational
