William’s hard-fought English Schools’ XC bronze!

On the picturesque Sefton Park course in Liverpool last Saturday, William Rabjohns again showed his class to gain a brilliant bronze in the English Schools’ Cross-Country Junior Boys’ 4400m race. He was supported by second-claimer Oscar and by Tristan. This JB team was the most successful of the Dorset Boys’ teams, ranking 22/44. Outstanding by Will as a first-year u15. Emily, Emilie and Ashia scored to help the Inter Girls to produce the best Dorset ranking of 20/42. Isobel also helped to push other finishers one place further back!  Josh and Mark (Inter Boys), second-claimer Fern (SG), and Lexie (JG) all scored and helped their Dorset teams to team rankings.
