Metro Championships: Thoughts from the van

A few more thoughts on Mets XC meet, as I sit in a van near the Burger King along Broadway in Riverdale, poaching Internet from Optimum ...

--Great weather day, cool and breezy and sunny. Vintage autumn weather.
--Great to see four freshmen score for our men. The main reason we brought our freshmen here was to give them the feeling of scoring in a championship meet -- similar to what we did at Stony Brook. Mission accomplished.
--We were proud to be upper/middle of the pack in a meet in which we truly brought a partial squad on both sides. Shows our program's depth.
--Why am I sitting in a van in the Bronx on a Friday afternoon? Great question! I am awaiting a few of our men who are racing tomorrow at Princeton, who had an academic presentation in the city this afternoon. They are currently taking the subway uptown. Waaaay uptown. And then we're driving to Princeton.
--Thanks to CSG for sharing this group photo from today.
