There was at least one shocking upset this weekend in Indiana.
Indianapolis Cathedral High junior Cole Hocker, who had finished with a season PB of 15:13.29 at the Riverview Health Invitational on Sept. 16, upset nationally ranked Gabe Fendel of Hamilton Southeastern at the Indiana High School Athletic Association Cross Country Section in Noblesville, producing a winning time of 15:08.00.
Fendel, a recent University of Colorado commit who's ranked No. 4 in the Flo50 rankings, went out hard with the lead, but Hocker slowly reeled him in.
Fendel, who beat Hocker at Riverview, was second in 15:14.60.
