WINFIELD, Kan. — The HutchCC men’s cross country team won the KJCCC Region VI title for the first time in 22 years Saturday afternoon.

In a frantic race that saw the leaders go out quickly, it was the fourth and fifth runners for the Dragons that sealed the win. Hutch outscored Colby by four points. Andrew Kibet pulled away from a pack of six runners at the three-mile mark to win the individual title by 16 seconds in a time of 24:01. Sylvester Kibarar was fifth in a time of 25:07 and Andrew Hillabrand was eighth in 25:35.

As the third runners for both Colby and Hutch crossed the finish line, the two schools were tied in total points. But Jared Stark, the Dragon’s fourth runner across the line, and Gaven Alexander, the fifth Blue Dragon to finish, were both two places ahead of the Trojans fourth and fifth runners to secure the championship.

It’s the first Region VI title for Hutchinson since 1996. The Dragons also won the Jayhawk Conference west title. Kibet, Kibarar, Hillabrand and Stark were all named to the Region VI team. Coach Justin Riggs was named Region VI Coach of the Year.
