‘A great journey.' State High boys cross country wins second state title in three years

For the second time in three years, State College boys’ cross country has won a state title. The Little Lions won the 2026 PIAA Boys AAA State Cross Country Championships on Saturday in Newville, with two of their runners taking first and second overall in the race. Senior Luke Bradbury (15:06) won gold, while classmate Theo Oppermann (15:27) took second to lead State High. The team’s score (33 points) is tied for the second-lowest in PIAA history and is the lowest in 20 years, with Coatesville’s score of 26 in 2006 (when the school won the national title) being the all-time record. State High is now tied with the 1946 Aliquippa team and the 1940 Reading team with those 33 points. State High head coach Rebecca Donaghue said the team’s success says a lot about where the program stands. “We’re going after really building that legacy and helping these kids believe in the process and the lifestyle of a runner and putting it all together for something bigger than themselves,” Donaghue told the Centre Daily Times. “I think these kids have bought into what we’re trying to do, and I think the program just on the up. It’s exciting that
