We had a VERY good race on Saturday at the Section One Coaches Invitational at Bowdoin Park. The varsity team placed third in the Varsity 4 race, out of 16 teams, to win a plaque, just 22 points behind Lakeland/Panas, 133-155. We were ahead on points at the 2 mile mark. We posted an 18:25 team time average - must better than the 18:48 at Leagues. We will be even closer or ahead at the County Meet on the flat, fast course of Croton Point Park. We have run well on flatter, fast courses this year. We are in the mix to challenge the overall title, as well as the Class B title. (There is also a plaque awarded in each class).


The JV team placed fifth - missing Ben Deurso and with Tom Wray getting spiked and tripped with a 1/4 mile to go. Times will be posted at practice.
