Hesler had a great junior campaign that saw her help the Scots to a fourth consecutive Class A title. Allie ran to a third-place finish at Twin Brook last fall and then went on to finish 55th in the New England Championship. Hesler improved indoor running by 5:31.92 for the mile and also ran 12:20.10 for 2 miles. During the outdoor season, she set another personal best at 3200m with a 12:11.02. Look for Hesler to be one of the top runners in the state this fall as she looks to close out a very successful xc career for Bonny Eagle.
