CLASS 'A' ALL-TIME TOP 10

The Hill City Ranger boys cross country team had another outstanding performance at the Belle Fourche Invitational cross country meet. 
 
All of the Running Rangers ran personal bests for the year and personal best times for the Belle Fourche course.  No official team points were kept at the meet, however unofficial point tallying had the Ranger boys edging out the "AA" Douglas boys by one point, 40-41.  In Class A cross country, team scores are determined by the first four runners on each team and their respective places in the race.  The places of the first four runners are then added up, and the lowest point total determines the winning team.  The fifth and sixth runners on the team are the "pushers".  These runners try to finish in front of the first four runners on opposing teams to move the opposing teams score up. 
 
Individually, the Belle Fourche race was hottly contested, with 2 time defending state cross country champion Kiko Mendoza in the field, as well as Eamin Entwistle of Hot Springs: last Spring's 3200 meter state champion and defending Wyoming 3A cross country champ Brock Rose. 
 
The Rangers excelled with Andy Coy finishing 3rd (16:07), Hudson Koel 4th (16:25), Clint Lewis 13th (17:29), John Bintliff 20th (18:09), Josh Robison 25th (18:26) and Andy Quenzer 38th (19:13).
 
In the JV race, Dusty Swanson was 8th in 20:11 and Tyler Dewsbury finished in 23rd (22:12).  6th grader Marshall Swanson ran well in his first cross country race ever in the middle school division.
