Ravens Cross Country Continues to Set Personal Best Times
Hot weather forced a schedule and venue change for the Hillcrest Harriers this week. Tuesday’s temperatures in the mid-90s caused a cancelation of the Center Point-Urbana meet. The Burlington meet Thursday was an attractive alternative. The Raven runners responded well to temperatures in the mid-60s under clear skies on a flat course. Micah Gerber led the boys placing sixteenth in 19:33. Jesse Blossom was the next Raven finisher placing twenty-sixth in 21:00. This is his new personal best. Jeremiah Danker made the biggest improvement taking 4:50 off his previous personal best time. Danker placed thirty-ninth in 25:37. Junior Solomon Zaugg of Mediapolis won the race in 16:46. Davenport Central won the team title.
