Girl's XC Faces Tough Competition

-By Claire Dickson-

Girl’s cross country dominated on Tuesday at Waveny Park with 3 runners finishing in the top 16 of their race. Junior Amanda Dobler (pictured) led the pack with an incredible time of 15:53 for 2.45 miles (a pace of 6:24 per mile). Behind her was senior Hannah Lyons coming in sixth place and freshman Katie Farren coming in tenth. Overall, Darien’s time was an average of 16:52, an astoundingly low time for almost 2.5 miles. The team came in second place overall and had an awesome race, but they hope to do even better in their next meet on Tuesday October 13 in Greenwich.
