Don’t know all of the particulars but if there is meet or race scheduled at Haganstone Park and the crew out there puts down the heavy mulch you can pretty much run after Noah went through the park in his ark.

I have never seen anything like that heavy mulch that they put down on the course at Haganstone. The low lying areas when you come out of the woods at about the mile and half mark can be real wet so that might cut down on the chances for the race.

The grounds up around the barn will also be wet but they dry out as you pass the lake and head toward the old schoolhouse.

It’s a real nice course and especially fun to run on after a light snowfall has hit the area.

Good talk about cross country and who is supposed to be the best team in the area this year? Didn’t Mount Tabor have some good distance runners, I know they have a super 100 meters man in Hunter Furr but he plays football and is better suited for the short runs. My brain would also tell me that with more in-depth thinking, Northwest Guiflord should have an excellent cross country squad based on prior performance.

Pass the word to the other students, we are talking about them here at GREENSBOROSports.com.

No, just the first two. Word is, tomorrow’s meet will likely be canceled/ postponed if it rains much between now and then.

Is that the distance for all the high school meets, 3k?

Yeah this kid is pretty good. His name’s Landon Kinsey, he plays tennis too. Our home course is out at Haganstone State park, which doesn’t make much sense. Landon broke 11 minutes in a 3k race last week, with another 3k coming up this Thursday.

The backwards cap Kid is gonna be one to watch if he is turning 18-19 minute times on the 3.1 mile course. Where is the home cross country course for Page? Do they use Bryan Park and what is the name of the Kid with the backwards ball cap? We need to keep a GREENSBOROSports.com bulletin out for him.

It’s good to see the cross country team get some publicity, haha. Backwards hat kid is our best runner;
I think he’s in the 18-19 min range, and only a sophomore. This year, “little one”, a five foot even freshman will give backwards hat a run for his money. Coach Osborne’s response to the rainy practices? “There’s no bad weather, only soft people.”
