2004 Cross Country

Dirk Hollar
Junior
Minerva, OH
Minerva High School

 

Coach's Comments -- "Dirk had a little sophomore slump due to a nagging leg injury. I expect him to rebound and be a team leader this year. He can run 25:00's this year!"

2004 Season -- Dirk had one top-ten finish on the season.  He placed 7th at the Rio Grande Invitational in a time of 27:35.  He placed 18th overall at the AMC Championship Meet and just missed earning all-conference recognition.  His best time of the year (26:54) came at the NAIA National Championship Meet.

2003 Season -- After an extremely successful freshman season, Dirk struggled with a leg injury throughout his sophomore year.  He ran a season best time of 26:32 at the Wilmington Invitational.  He finished in the fourth spot on the team at the NAIA National Championship meet.

2002 Season -- Dirk had a tremendous freshman season as he compiled six top-10 finishes, including a 10th place finish at the AMC/NAIA Region IX meet which qualified him for the NAIA Championship meet.  He landed on SSU's Top-25 Fastest Times list on three occasions and earned All-AMC honors in the process.  His time of 26:21 is the fastest ever recorded by an SSU freshman.

Minerva High School --  Hollar is a two-time All-State runner and a four-time All-Conference runner.  In addition to running, Dirk also played basketball.
