A graduate from the Class of 1994 bested more than 500 runners -- including a former St. Lawrence track and cross country teammate -- to win the Portsmouth Harbour Trail 5K road race in Maine on July 9.

Ethan Hemphill '94, of Freeport, Maine, won the race with a time of 15 minutes, 26 seconds. Among the other 500 runners in the 10th annual event was Richard Bolt '92, who came in second. Both Hemphill and Bolt were on the Alpine ski, track and cross country teams while students at St. Lawrence.

According to a story in the Portsmouth Herald newspaper, Hemphill stopped off on a drive to upstate New York for a vacation in order to run the race. Read the newspaper story.
