The top finisher for the Bucs in the five-kilometer race was Isaiah Horsford, who took third-place overall. UVI’s Sergio Barbel finished in 13th place, with John Nemith in 14th.

The five-kilometer race was one of several run in the overall competition, which also included events for grade and high school students.
