The Avon girls took home a Division-I district championship after totaling 63 points, beating out runner-up Amherst (75) and Westlake (76). The Eagles ran an average time of 20:42.96, and were led by junior Jules Frombach placing second with a 20:05.20 and senior Claudia Hermann taking third (20:08.10).

Frombach, who was named Lorain County Runner of the Year, also won the SWC Preview meet at the beginning of the year on the same course.
