Ibbs and Virr prove a winning combination

Owen Wilkes was the boys’ winner on the final day of racing in the Mid-Warwickshire Primary Schools’ Cross-Country League at Priory Park in Warwick.

Wilkes finished ahead of Southam duo Alexander Ibbs and Timothy Virr, who had the consolation of leading their school to the boys’ team prize, both on the day and overall.

St Margaret’s ran away with the girls’ team prizes after Courtney Hancox, Erin Cunningham and Sara Beyen made it a 1-2-3 to complete a clean sweep of race wins.
