Dripping Springs Cross Country running strong
Progress has been good as the Dripping Springs cross country teams have consistently challenged for the top spots in all of their meets — with cooperating weather helping to lower their times.
The last meet the teams competed in was the Hays Invitational. The varsity and junior varsity girls both placed second in their divisions, just missing out on their respective titles. Competition has been tough for the varsity boys, and they placed seventh in the meet. The JV boys pushed their way up to third place.
