It was a special end to a special season for our program.
Our women’s team notched its top finish in school history in the championships –
second place! -- with the top runners earning All-East medals in the process.
The men had an incredibly tight 1-through-6 compression of 19 seconds and parlayed
that into a ninth-place finish in a competitive field. Because of the terrible
weather that plagued the Northeast on Friday, the courses were altered. Neither
course included the Back Hills and the men’s course omitted Cemetery Hill as
well. The men’s course, in particular, was very short of the usual 5 miles –
one runner had 4.73 miles on his watch; we’ll go with that. However you add it
up, it was well shy of the correct course in terms of terrain and distance. No
matter. It was a great day at Vanny, capping a great season for our women’s and
men’s cross country teams. Thanks to Martha Weimann for providing sooooo many
photos (including this one of our special senior class). Very cool.
