The DCHS Cross Country Team traveled to Cookeville Tuesday, October 25 to compete in the TSSAA Region 4 A-AA meet. In the girls race, Mya Ruch finished 3rd with her best time of the season coming in at 20:46. This 3rd place finish qualified her to attend and compete in the TSSAA state meet which will be held on Nov. 5th. This is the first time DCHS has had anyone to go to state for XC. Mya is a freshman this year and also earned a spot on the All Mid-State team. She qualified for this honor over fall break.
In the boys race, several boys achieved their PR for the year and Jose Rodriguez finished first for DeKalb County with a time of 20:03. This was the first time the senior had finished first for the team. The DeKalb boys finished as a team in 9th place out of 13 teams. Congratulations to all the runners on a great season
