Monday morning's verified update for Union, Prentiss, Alcorn, Benton and Tippah counties is a newly reported Union County cross-country result. The race took place Saturday; Union County Sports reported it Sunday.
Union: Myrtle's Murphy places ninth at Watson
Myrtle Attendance Center junior Ally Murphy placed ninth in the girls' Gold 5,000-meter race at Saturday's Watson High School XC Classic in Jackson. Her time was 18 minutes, 40.2 seconds, according to the meet's completed results. Union County Sports reported the result Sunday and noted that regional meets are scheduled later this week. The ninth-place finish is a race result, not a regional championship result.
