Tayla-Jai Greenfield was also ranked as the top girl overall with team-mate Lillia Clarke seventh, Holly Whittaker 16th and youngest member Gemma Forgie 42nd.
“It was a massive achievement for the girls,” said club coach Theresa Storey.
“The Moray quartet saw off stiff competition from top-rated Edinburgh club Harmeny AC, who finished second, and Inverness Harriers who were third.
The boys’ team also dug deep to finish 33rd out of 54 competing teams. Lucas Burnett was the highest ranked Elgin AAC competitor, just ahead of team-mates Leo Grant, Dexter Flett and Jack Moore.
