BARRE— Youth reigned supreme while Wachusett Regional's long reign ended yesterday at the 12th annual Quabbin Invitational. Freshman Rylee Gillen of Nashoba Regional and eighth-grader Gianna Mastromatteo of St. Peter-Marian were the first to cross the finish line in their respective divisions. In Division 1, the 14-year-old Gillen, who ran the 2.92-mile Quabbin course in 18 minutes, 16.81 seconds, led the Chieftains to their first win here with 29 points. After 11 straight titles, Wachusett placed second with 44, while host Quabbin Regional (97) was third.
