COLUMBUS — What has been a glorious season for Jefferson High School graduate Jillian (Headley) Walters as the head girls cross country coach at Maplewood High School came to a satisfying end Saturday at the Division III girls state meet.

With 143 points, the Rocket girls finished fourth in the team race. Many-time champion Minster won with 98 points, while Spencerville was the runner-up with 123 points and Berkshire, which Maplewood had defeated last week for the Northeast regional championship, placed third with 134 points.

“I’m so excited for these girls,” the 2003 Jefferson graduate, said. “Their goal today was to come out, run their own race and go as hard as they could.

“We knew we were ranked third coming in, and I knew it was their expectation to finish there. I’m happy with how they ran anyway. They worked hard to get here.”

Walters, who is in her first year as a Spanish teacher at Maplewood High School, ran cross country at Jefferson for current Falcon coach Gary Thaxton. The daughter of Jefferson residents Ron and Shelia Headley has been married to Jefferson football assistant Rickey Walters for two years.

The Rockets were led by Alana Shamrock, who finished 17th overall, and Krystal Williams, who was 20th overall, to earn second-team All-Ohio honors. Erin Pavich was 47th overall, Haley Gatrell was 62nd overall and Christine Drawl was 110th overall. The top four scorers for the Rockets are underclassmen, with Shamrock and Pavich only freshmen, Gatrell a sophomore and Williams a junior promising a bright future.

“I think the girls ran their race,” Walters said. “Everyone here is good. They have nothing to be ashamed. They’ve all worked so hard.”

Stepping up

Speaking of Berkshire, coach Julie Cole’s Badgers followed the great tradition of previous teams and put their best foot forward at Scioto Downs.

Coming in ranked fourth in Division III, Berkshire, which had been runner-up to Maplewood at the regional meet, reversed positions with the Rockets.

“I thought the girls looked good,” Cole said. “They ran hard.
