Oil City Meet

We have never raced at Oil City.  I don't know where the race is at this point. If I can get the information tomorrow from our Athletic Director, I will update.  I can only assume the race is at the high school.  If nothing else, a call to Oil City High School would be able to provide the information.  I can do that around 10:00.  Check back...

Cochranton Results--Woot!

Here they are.  What a great day!

This is the first big invitational that we've ever won.  I feel it is a good omen.

PIAA Foundation Results

Great day at Hershey.  Our boys took 4th out of 19 A schools.  Not too bad.  Hunter led the way with a 5th place finish followed by Morgan in 13th.  For full results you can to PennTrackXC at: http://pa.milesplit.com/meets/117411-6th-piaa-foundation-xc-invitational

Looks like a good day for all around!

After all of that . . .

The district has given us a van for use to transport the runners to Hershey this weekend.  We just have to cover gas.  That helps us a lot.  We depart Friday morning at 8am from the faculty parking lot.  The rest of the team will race Saturday at Sharpsville.  The bus departs at 7:30am sharp. 

Big Win All Around

All four teams win both!  The varsity boys ran a nearly flawless race, taking the first three positions guaranteeing a win.  The top 7 ran exactly as they needed to.  The girls won two forfeits.  The junior high boys ran a nice race to beat Rocky Grove, plus a forfeit.  The girls were excellent, as well--two forfeits.  

Boys:  4-0; Girls:  3-1; Jr. High Boys:  4-0; Jr. High Girls:  4-0.  WOW.

More later.

Cochranton and Beyond

Big race at Cochranton.  The hill looms before us.  The race is held at Cochranton Elementary School which is straight through the light, then on your left.  Race time will be around 4-4:15 I suspect.  Our kids will be departing at 2:30.  

Our varsity boys could be in for a great race.  Hope to see all there.  

Sharpsville information is above, as well.  

Great Race!

Yesterday afternoon our boys varsity team started off the season with a stellar performance, thumping Franklin and Titusville in Region 3 action.  Hunter won in 16:09 with Morgan 2nd in 16:42.  Brendon and Matt S. followed in 4th and 5th with 17:04 and 17:22.  Most of our runners raced down their personal bests last night.  

The girls went 1-1 which beats forfeiting everything like we had to last year.  Alexis ran a 21:28 taking 3rd with Maegan taking 5th in 23:35.  Again, the girls mostly met their goals.

The junior high teams both went 2-0.  This is exceptional because the other schools had far greater numbers.  In boys' action Lloyd, Wesley and Aidan were 2, 3 and 4, respectively.  Jarrett and Devin were 7th and 9th which was good.  In girls' action Gaby excelled again running 15:50 taking 1st.  Beka took 2nd in 16:09.  Emily S. was 4th, Kendra, 9th, and Allysa was 11th.  We're getting better.

Great job runners!  Our next race is next Tuesday at Cochranton with Rocky Grove attending as well.
