September 27: Coach Downey XC Classic … JV mostly
http://www.downeyclassic.com
Up until a few years ago this was called the Saints Small School Invite and was hosted by Saint Augustine High School. When the Saints Coach passed away, the meet was taken over by a former runner of his and is now known as the Coach Downey XC Classic. It’s for D-IV and D-V schools and is held at Morley Field, over parts of our League Course. Now, it includes races for both high schools with enrollments of 1500 or less, as well as Community Colleges. In the past or girls team won the team championship more often than not, with the boys winning from time-to-time. Now, we use this a meet for those who need or want a race. We no longer try to win it as a team. Because our varsity runners now attend more high-level races than we did back then the varsity trains through it. That said, It’s available for anyone on our team who wants to race. The entry deadline is Monday, Sept 23rd. So, if you want to run I need to know ASAP. It’s a Friday meet, so there will be an early release. See the link above for the schedule and everything else about the meet.
