Hutchinson Community College Athletics

AUGUSTA – Running against several Division I runners, Hutchinson Community College sophomore Sky Chapman had a strong opening meet to the 2009 season at the Wichita State Invitational at Raft Golf Course.

Chapman completed the 6K men’s course in a time of 20 minutes, 10.37 seconds, placing 17th overall. Chapman’s time was the best of all the junior college runners and was the third-best non-Division I time, trailing only a pair of Southwestern College runners.

After Chapman, the rest of the Blue Dragons packed up and placed in 34th through 38th place.

Freshman Ben Henson was 34th in 22:03.77. Freshman James Vieyra was 35th in 22:15.28. Freshman Cole Robben was 36th in 22:18.39. Freshman Blake Stoppel was 38th in 22:20.14. Freshman Matthew Klenda placed 44th with a time of 23:59.01.
