Western Nebraska Observer - Observations all along the line - Kimball & the Southern Panhandle First

Deven Sullivan is back at it, representing the Banner County Wildcats at state competition.

The long-distance running star will compete Friday at the State cross country meet in Kearney after a strong second-place showing at the Class D District 6 meet at Bridgeport.

Sullivan, a senior, ran the course at Courthouse and Jail Rock Golf Course in 18:06, 9 seconds behind winning runner Trevor Kuncil of Mullen.

Last spring, Sullivan advanced to the state track meet and did Banner School proud, finishing 11th in the 1600 and 12th in the 3200.
