Rosie Mucharsky brought the fire to an already steamy situation. 

Temperatures hovered right around 90-degrees Friday afternoon at the Arapahoe Warrior XC Invitational

In other words: it was another blistering August afternoon on Colorado’s front range. 

Regardless, Mucharsky wanted more of that heat. 

The Denver East senior and defending state champion scorched the final mile to run away with the victory, running 17:52.

The time was the fourth-fastest ever at this meet, and the fifth sub-18-clocking. 

Chaparral took the team title with an impressive 64-points by putting four in the top-eight, while Cherry Creek took second with 98, and Fairview was third with 124.

Like the girl’s race, the boy’s race was decided in the final mile. 

Regis Jesuit’s Braeden Focht made a bid for the win early, but it was ThundeRidge’s Ben Lee who torched the final mile to come from way back to win this one in 15:40.

Lee’s performance was the fourth-fastest time ever at this meet.
