Fort Defiance runner wins state cross country title

Henley Ann Coffman won the Class 2 girls cross country state championship Nov. 7. The junior is the first Fort Defiance runner to capture the individual title since Abby Lane did so as a senior in 2023. Coffman ran a 19:25.50 at Green Hill Park in Salem, topping second place Cora Mosby of Radford by five seconds. She added the state title to her Shenandoah District and Region 2B championships this year. "At first I was just tired and glad to be done," Coffman said of the finish, "and then I was happy I won." She led throughout the race, challenged by Mosby at one point but never falling into second as she pushed throughout the race. "My only strategy going into the race was to give it my best and try and win," Coffman said. She'll now turn her attention to track and field where she will run distance for Fort Defiance. Fort Defiance finished seventh as a team in the Class 2 girls meet. The Fort boys finished fifth, led by three sophomores — Matt Dulaney, Leighton Magalis and Wyatt Metcalfe. In the Class 1 meet Riverheads' Verity Jordan finished 12th in the girls meet and Cooper Boyd

A crowd surpassing 200 people packed the cafeteria at Henley Middle School in Crozet October 26 to see Albemarle County’s recommendation for exactly where the Three Notched Trail from Charlottesville to the east portal of Claudius Crozet’s tunnel in Afton should run. The county is developing plans for the trail through a $2 million federal grant. The idea for the trail first arose in 2015. At a previous meeting in December, planners asked the public for reactions to three possible route alternatives.
