Meet Summaries

Boys:  The boys launched their fall competitive schedule with good efforts and performance--as well as indications there will be team competition for the varsity top-7 spots this coming season. Top-30 performances in the strong field by Mike Bott and Charlie Deragon have set the stage for some front-running in the league. 'Closing the gap' on those two will be the goal for the rest of the varsity runners and will provide for many interesting shifts in team order. For the boys JV, Tom Hopkins turned in a terrific first race with the team's 7th best effort and a top-25 JV finish.

Girls: The girls sprang into action with a few surprises that signal a very interesting season ahead. Elizabeth McMahon clocked the fastest WG girls time in recent years as she signaled she'll be a force in Section III this fall. Katie Rothenberg moved up in the second half of the race for 12th place overall finish. An excellent day by freshman Colleen Smith was denied when she cramped in the final mile after moving into the team's 3rd spot. Colleen gutted it out for a team 6th place. Sarah Kibby ran a solid and steady 3rd for the team. Kayla Murphy, enjoyed a solid first varsity race in racing 4th for the team. In the girls JV race, Katie Naton used a lot of perseverance and some closing loop power to move up 4-5 places for a top-10 overall finish. Amanda Brown cracked the JV top-20 with 18th place and 2nd for her girls squad. This invitational provided a good glimpse of the potential this 2005 team can put on the start line.
