Cross country dominates Lockhart Hippensteel Invitational
The season could not have gotten off to a better start for the Dripping Springs cross country program. After complete domination at their own meet, the Tigers moved down the road to participate in the much stronger Lockhart Hippensteel Invitational meet with much the same results. They won three of the four divisions and placed second in the other. The varsity teams competed in the 5A-6A division.
