McCulloch wins OFSAA Gold

It was another OFSAA Championship and another provincial gold medal for Shona McCulloch, a grade 10 student at Longfields Davidson Heights Secondary School in Barrhaven. McCulloch took home the title in the junior girls 4km race in a time of 14:43.5, nearly five seconds ahead of Christi Konstantopoulos from Toronto Prep. The result marked Shona’s third OFSAA gold after winning midget cross country a year ago in a photo finish and dominating the 3000m on the track this past spring. Shona will look for more OFSAA medals as she heads to Burlington this weekend as part of Longfields Davidson’s field hockey team.
The biggest OFSAA winner from the Ottawa Lions may just have been coach Kirk Dillabaugh, the head coach at Glebe Collegiate, who lead the Gryphons to their third consecutive overall girls OFSAA team title as well as a silver medal in the overall boys race, just two points out of first. Dillabaugh’s team at Glebe managed to pick up medals in 5 of the 6 categories, including taking home gold in the senior girls division. The team lead by Lions Claire Smith and Alexa Livingstone won gold with a measly 68 points, 207 ahead of their nearest competitor.
