Hynes finished the course at Raymore-Peculiar Middle School in a time of 18 minutes, 22 seconds and has made quite an impression this season. &#8220;I think it establishes her as one of the top runners in Kansas City &#8212; there&#8217;s no way around it,&#8221; LS North coach Gary Kruger said.</p><p><strong><span class="subhead">Maksim Korolev</span></strong></p><p><strong>&#8226;SCHOOL: </strong>Harrisonville</p><p><strong>&#8226;YEAR:</strong> Junior</p><p><strong>&#8226;SPORT: </strong>Cross country</p><p>Since the KC Metro meet has been held at the middle school, there has never been a runner who has finished the course in 15 minutes, 36 seconds. That is until Saturday, when Korolev ran the record-setting time in winning the boys division. Already this season, Korolev has set course records and won nearly every meet he&#8217;s competed in. His victory, though, in the KC Metro meet ranks high since the event is largely considered a prelude to the Missouri state meet.</p><p></div>
