Most citizens of Sussex County have never been to Brecknock Park in Camden and couldn’t find it with a Tom Tom, Garmin and smartphone all triangulating its position.

But nestled in the backyard of Caesar Rodney High, it is a nexus of beauty for walking and running, bringing kids to its playground or just chilling and talking with friends on a fall afternoon.

A quadrangular meet of boys and girls scored six ways from Sunday took place Oct. 21, as Caesar Rodney welcomed Dover, Cape and Delmar for the 5K race.

The boys' results, where every team is scored against the others and low score wins, were CR over Cape 20-40, CR over Delmar 15-49, Cape over Delmar 17-44 and Dover over Cape 25-32.

The girls' teams results as posted were CR over Cape 20-38, CR over Delmar 15-50, Cape over Delmar 17-39, and Cape over Dover 17-38.

The top 15 girls were Lauren Grismer, CR, 20:51; Nicolette Beers, CR, 20:56; Sarah Dziak, Cape, 21:02; Natasha Feuerstein, CR, 21:20; Stephanie Torres, CR, 21:24; Grace Brokaw, Cape, 21:31; Darby Klopp, Cape, 21:40; Sarah Wearden, CR, 21:53; Katherine Bole, CR, 21:58; Zoe Callard, Cape, 22:06; Kristen Glass, Dover, 22:08; Hyleigh Jimenez, Dover, 22:23; Cowan Cummings, CR, 22:31; Annabel Dwiggins, CR, 22:37; and Desiree Granados, Delmar, 23:04.
