OBETZ — Madie Grace Gonczy and Piper Seibold crossed the finish line together one more time. Of course they did. Running side by side for a good chunk of their careers, the Crestwood seniors did it one last time in their final high school cross country race, finishing less than a second apart in the Division III state championship race. "Honestly, it was a goal going into this to finish together because it is our last race together, so we just wanted to push each other as best we could," said Seibold, who finished 21st in 18:58.2.
