10th White River Water Carnival 4 Mile Classic

Batesville's Brian Baker wins 10th White River Classic Race
By Unknown of the Guard Staff

On his fourth try, Batesville's Brian Baker won the 10th Annual White River Classic 4-Mile run. Baker fought through heat and humidity to post his best performance ever - a time of 21:09. That's 32 seconds faster than his time last year, and was also a full minute ahead of second-place finisher John Gross of Little Rock. Gross' second-place effort put him at the top of the men's 25-29 age group.

Tatum Simon, a Batesville High teammate of Baker's, was the first finisher in the women's division, crossing the line with a time of 27:13. Alisa Hook, another BHS runner, was second with a time of 33:24.
