Updated: Cross Country Race Results so far this season. David Stuber and Colton Kirksey have medaled in every race this year. Stuber has 2 top 10s (Varsity) Kirksey has 4 top 10s (3 First Place Finishes) (Junior High) Travis Dixon has steadily improved his race plan. Three more races to get that fine tuned before Districts. Kayla Stuber runs with determination and you better not be near her at the end, because she will beat you.
