Cole Smith and Brittney Crain were in the clover at the Shamrock Scamper

Shamrock Scamper 5KSaturday, 15 March 2025 was in the middle of the high school track and field season for the Providence Christian Eagles. That, however, didn't prevent Eagle senior Cole Smith from slipping over to Dothan, Alabama's Westgate Park Trail that morning to defend his 2024 title in the 2024 Shamrock Scamper 5K Cross-Country Race. And defend it he did, outkicking his fellow Eagle, sophomore Cash Mullins, for the win, 17:57 to 17:58. Brittney Crain of Dothan was the first woman in the Scamper, coming in third overall in 21:27.


First place in the men's standings was hotly contested, but so was the third spot. Taking that third spot, Dothan's Billy Champion finished just ahead of Drew Johnston of Midland City, Alabama, 24:52 to 24:54, while McLain Kingry of Dothan was just another step behind in fifth at 24:55. Not much farther behind was the first master runner in the race, Dothan's Steve Hoekenga. Hoekenga the sixth man and seventh overall in 25:08.


Isabelle Walker of Midland City was the women's runner-up, ninth overall in 26:40. Lindsey Marco edged Sibel Yilmaz for third in the women's division, 27:10 to 27:12. Marco and Yilmaz were eleventh and twelfth overall; Yilmaz was the first woman master.


39 athletes finished the 2025 Shamrock Scamper 5K. River Region Timing of Central Alabama timed the race.
