The 42-year-old Irvine won the overall crown in a tight, 11-second win over 18-year-old Paul Dauterine. Irvine finished in 17 minutes, 46 seconds while Dauterine crossed the finish line in 17:56.
Bahm, who was the top female competitor, finished ninth overall with a time of 27:58.
Saturday's Classic came out of the blocks about three months later than its normal MCCA parade day start. That, and the anticipated warm weather, raised some question in regards to the size of the field.
While race coordinator Brad Lewis said he didn't know if the weather would impact the field or not, he said the range of entrants in recent years had ranged from 30 to 60 — which placed Saturday's field of 38 in the normal range.
"It's about an average field," Lewis said.
Bogalusa Mayor Charles Mizell fired the shotgun to start the race. "It's good to see these folks, both our local residents as well as our out-of-town visitors, come to Bogalusa," he said.
Saturday's race results include:
