Practice
Practices begin Aug. 18 and are held Monday-Friday from 3:30-4:30 p.m. Athletes need to wear a T-shirt, athletic shorts, and tennis shoes to practice (and bring a water bottle). Practices begin in the auxiliary gym. Cross-country runners must complete and turn in a current physical, concussion form, and substance abuse policy form in order to participate. During the week, practices are usually composed of long runs, sprints, hills, and games.
Meets
The cross-country team will compete in five meets this year. Sixth and seventh graders run one mile, and eighth graders run two miles.
