Christian Groendyk Wins Colorado 5A State Championship
What was the moment like for Fort Collins senior Christian Groendyk when he won his first-ever Colorado Class 5A state championship.

MileSplit Colorado's Bobby Reyes speaks with Groendyk after the race -- which he won in 15:13.5 to become the third-fastest boy on the Norris Penrose course -- and gives him the chance to reflect on his high school improvement from being a state alternate as a freshman to a champion at his final state cross country meet.
