On Oct. 11, the Virgin Islands Track and Field Federation (VITFF) hosted the 2nd Cross Country Race for the St. Croix Interscholastic Athletic Association. One-hundred-thirty-eight athletes competed in the Elementary 1-Mile Race, the Middle School and Junior Varsity 2-Mile Race and the 3.1-Mile Varsity race in Estate Negro Bay.
There was some rainfall before the race that made the course somewhat tougher, but that did not lessen the excitement of all the athletes present.
The female and male 1-Mile Elementary School winners are Juvantia Hurst, Eulalie Rivera and Ridley Smith of Good Hope Country Day.
The winners in the 2-Mile race for Middle School are Faith Eatmon, Eulalie Rivera and Kolebert Daisley of Good Hope Country Day.
