This weekend was the Alabama A&M 5k cross country race directed by long time teammate James Falcon. Touted as having only one hill, this looped course runs around the entire campus and finishes with a lap on the grass track. Taking this overall win this year was Andrew Hodges in a time 18:23. Rob Youngren was second overall and top men's master. Neta Ezer, who was running her last race in Huntsville before moving, was the top female finisher, followed by Rebecca Byers and Kathy Youngren in second and third place. Many volunteers from the team helped to make this race possible.
