Early Bird Review

SJA opened the 2010 CC season on a perfect day at the Berkshire Early Bird Invitational. The team finished 3rd out of 15 and experienced many personal records. In all, an SJA record 42 runners finished the race, of which 20 were first time racers!

The top 5 scorers for SJA were senior Erin Gaffney (7th place), junior Celine Mangan (14th place), junior Mary Kate Chambers (18th), sophomore Bridget Egan (35th), and junior Sam Riley (43rd). This is a remarkable feat considering none of these girls were top 4 for SJA at this meet last year.

The new runners, including transfers, new upperclassmen, and freshmen, did a phenomenal job. We now have great depth and more runners breaking 25 than ever before. Results for our team can be found on a link on the blogspot as well as at www.baumspage.com.

Next week the team runs at the Ashland Invitational.
