Dixon High Cross Country Makes History at Frogtown Invitational (Results)

DHS Cross Country Frogtown Invitational Results

Dixon High School Cross Country made history at the Bret Harte Invite on Saturday 9.22.12 when 4 out of 4 teams placed and 26 out of 29 runners medaled in the meet. 

The Varsity Boys, JV Boys and the Sophmore Boys all placed FIRST as teams.  The Varsity Girls placed SECOND as a team.  Very impressive with the amount of runners and schools competing at Frogtown!

Next up for the Rams Runners will be their first HOME MEET in over 5 years.  Come out Wednesday, September 26th to the track at DHS and support your Rams Runners!  Races will begin at 3:30 with races beginning approximately every 20-30 minutes after the previous race.  DHS Cross Country would like to personally thank The Gnos Brothers, Dustin Timothy Farming, Pequeno and Son and Mayrol Brothers for their generous donations to the team.
