The Dawson County High School cross country teams had yet another strong showing against tough competition during the Marist Double Dip Invitational over the weekend with the girls’ team placing ninth and the boys third overall. “I’m a big believer that if we want to be prepared for championship competition at state, it’s vital to get our runners experience in racing elite level teams during the regular season,” said Coach Charles Beusse. The event at Marist School on Sept. 9 saw the Dawson girls team finish 9th behind the efforts of Frankie Muldoon who was fifth out of 162 runners in the field.
