Winder-Barrow High School’s cross country teams hosted Apalachee and Washington-Wilkes last Thursday in a meet which served as a warm-up for later this season.

“It was more of an event to practice with our timing system,” WBHS coach Michael Lofton said. “We also wanted to allow our runners a chance to work on their times.”

Skyler Lowe paced the WBHS boys with a run of 17:28.25 followed by teammates Chris Cope and Shane Davis. The Bulldoggs took the top nine spots at last week’s run.

Calvin Dotson was the top AHS runner, finishing 13th.

Amanda Cope once again paced the Lady Doggs finishing with a strong time of 20:51.87. Caitlin Connell and Whitley Kennedy were the next WBHS runners to finish the course.

Andrea Cardona led the AHS Lady Wildcats in 27:53.51, good enough for third place.

Lofton said Thursday’s event was a good warmup for when WBHS hosts its own invitational Oct. 9.
