Donovan Dixon 4th individually
Donovan Dixon and the rest of the Warhorse Cross Country team got a little preview of what is to come if they make it to Regional in Corpus Christi later this month as Dixon placed fourth individually of 206 runners and the team came in fourth as well among 23 in competition at Saturday’s Islander Splash which was rescheduled due to Mother Nature a few weeks ago.
Dixon ran his 5K in 17:27, only four-seconds behind the third place runner and four-seconds ahead of the fifth place finisher at the Islander Splash.
Scoring Devine’s 180 points along with Dixon were Ryan Botello, Brody Lane, Jake Riou, and Zane Fritz.
Botello finished 36th with a time of 19:20, Lane was 55th at 19:56, Riou came in next at 56th and a time of 19:59, and Fritz crossed at 63rd with a time of 20:12.
Shawn Lowe (68th, 20:19),Zac Guerra (72nd, 20:23), and Jesus Cisneros (94th, 21:04) also ran.
