Combined Team Rankings from 2025


It is probably no surprise that Emma Dobson (pictured above) was our top ranking XC Girl this season and had a combined team best finish with a time of 18:31.52, a new school record.  She was only the 2nd girl in school history to run sub-19 and did it in 3 consecutive races this season.  She currently holds 8 of the fastest Top-15 finishes of All-Time for all ages at Chestatee after just her freshman year.  In addition to school records, she won 4 races, finished 2nd in 4 more races, including Runner-up at County, Region, and State.

Jefferson Sibrian (pictured below) was our top ranking XC Boy in 2025 and had the second best time on the combined team of 18:33.64.  Fellow Sophomore Easton Chaffin came in 2nd by finishing with an 18:40.80 at Sectionals.

VETERAN SPOTLIGHT: Staff Sergeant Wilfried "Wes" Wessely, US Army

Image
November 11, 2025 By: Josh Dobson On Veterans Day, we want to recognize our favorite Veteran, Staff Sergeant Wilfried Wessely, US Army, whom we affectionally know as “Coach Wes”.   Pictured above in Vietnam during Christmas in 1969,  Coach Wes served in the First Infantry Division of US Army (known as The Big Red One  from their involvement of pushing the Germans back during the Battle of the Bulge in WW2) from 1968-1970 where he was initially stationed at Fort Gordon in Augusta, GA before undergoing training before being sent overseas to Vietnam after being drafted at age 19.    At the time of his deployment, Wes was initially given the rank of Staff Sergeant (E-6). Coach Wes, known as "Bandit 25", had to assume the role of a Platoon Sergeant   due to a shortage of men as a result of the losses suffered during the Tet Offensive campaign in 1968.   Wes was flown out to the Fishhook Region near An Loc, Vietnam to enter combat near the terminus of t...

GAINESVILLE, GA - Strong thunderstorms and a late-night downpour just hours before an early morning start made for wet and muddy conditions at Chestatee High School for the 20th Annual War Eagle XC Invitational on Saturday, but that did not seem to affect the Chestatee girls. Coming off her 2024 Middle School State XC Championship, Freshman Emma Dobson made her High School debut finishing with a victory in the Varsity Girls 5K race with a time of 21:00.10.  Seniors Kayleigh McBride and Izzy Wintermantel finished 3rd and 5th respectively and a strong showing by both Freshman Isabella McClenathen (15th) and Junior Crystal Vaca (18th) sealed the deal as the Varsity Girls dominated to win over Grayson High. Junior Alison Aguilar won in the JV Girls 2-Mile Race with a time of 17.08.40.  Right behind Aguilar was Sophomore Kylor Stewart, Freshman Harper Irvin, Junior Natalie Menjivar, and Junior Briana Aguilar to complete the sweep of the top 5 spots and come out on top of with a per...
