The Fordham Prep Spiked Shoe Club
presents the
51st Annual Freshman Cross Country Relays

Van Cortlandt Park, Bronx, NY
October 21, 2006

 

Coach:  Your Freshmen are invited to participate in this unique event that has been held each October at Van Cortlandt Park for the past half century.  The meet is open to all HS teams, and may serve as an interesting change of pace. 

 

Races:  5-Runner relays for Freshmen Only.  Three boys races, one girls race. 
9:25am - Boys A  Race: Your best five Freshmen – one team permitted
10:00am - Boys B Race: your 6th -10th Freshmen – one team permitted*  (You MUST enter an “A” team in order to enter a “B” team)
10:40am - Boys C race:  runners 11-15, 16-20 etc. – unlimited teams permitted  
11:20am - Girls Race: unlimited number of 5-runner teams

Course:  In each relay, the leadoff leg starts at the 2.5 mile Varsity Cross Country start next to the Van Cortlandt mansion.  He/she runs the flats and the Freshman hill loop (do NOT cross the bridge into the “backhills”) and hands off the baton in a relay zone at the 2.5 mile finish line—approximately 1.2 miles.  Legs 2 through 5 run the Freshman hill loop only – approximately .9 miles.

 

Awards:
Boys and Girls A Races: Plaque to 1st place; team medals to teams 2-10
Boys B Race: Team Medals to teams 1-7
Boys C Race: Team Medals to teams 1-5

 

Please note: Any Freshmen you have that cannot fit on a 5-man team can run in the Molloy Invitational on the same day at 12:00pm.  This race is reserved specifically for those runners.
