Dexter held the 2023 Stoddard County Athletic Association (SCAA) Cross Country meet on Saturday at Charles Bland Stadium.  The DHS boys team won the overall meet.

"Today was a great day for our team," commented head cross country coach Josh Dowdy. "We bounced back from a tough meet last week at Notre Dame to knock off a very good Woodland team led by two exceptional runners.  Our kids did not pace themselves today...we raced!  That is the kind of effort we need down the stretch to get out of our district."

The Lady 'Cats varsity girls team was led by Abbie Lloyd.  She placed second with a time of 21:30.70.

Cameron Bell led the way for the boys placing 3rd for the Bearcats with a time of 16:37.80.
