Snow kidding? It's still XC season!

Well, well, well. Apparently, winter was in a rush in getting here. The recently completed storm dumped about a foot of snow here in the mid-Hudson Valley, forcing the unprecedented cancellation of the Federation high school XC Championship, which was to be held on Saturday at Bowdoin Park. With the amount of snow that fell on already saturated ground, there was no way that course could have held anything resembling a championship running event in those conditions. For our team, the ECAC/IC4A Championships will plow on (pun intended) as planned on Saturday at Van Cortlandt Park, which promises to be a bit messy tomorrow for sure. Much like the rest of the season, in which seemingly every meet has been contested in challenging conditions, we'll simply spike up and go.
