Frosh Notes
(Note PR denotes "Personal Record") The Frosh some dramatic improvements and
impressive first time performances from newcomings. They also established themselves as a
force to be reckoned with in the league. This week's MIP (most improved performer)
honors go to Brendan Craig and Sean Hackett, both with improvments of over 3 minutes from
their previous times. Congrats. 42 Fordham Prep Freshmen competed, the largest
group of Freshman from Fordham Prep to ever run in a Cross Country meet.
Scoring a Cross Country Meet:
Is simple. Usually, a team is made up of 7 competitors. In scoring, each team adds the finish places of their top 5 finishers. Thus, the lowest score wins. In case of a tie, the team with the lowest 6th place finisher wins. 7th place ( and lower, if a meet agrees to have unlimited team members) also plays an important role, as he might finish ahead of another team's 5th place finisher, thus increasing that team's score.
