The Cross Country season will soon begin!
Returning and new team members, and those who are just interested in finding out more about the Flying Dragons, should attend our first week of practices. Come even if you think you may not have everything needed to get started.
We meet before 9:00am each weekday morning starting August 18th for two weeks. You will find us in the Bronx at the south end of Van Cortlandt Park along Broadway, right next to the 1 train terminal at W 242. Below is a map of our meeting place. Be early - we leave at 9:00am!
We put together a map of our Varsity race course in Van Cortlandt Park, based on GPS data and photogrammetric methods.
Go ahead and click on it. It's fully interactive. Mouse over the Elevation Profile and you will see where various highs and lows on the course occur.
You can also look the full sized version.
We had a great Freshman Orientation at school today, with 102 members of the HSMSE Class of 2018 in attendance. Coach Henning and several team members gave out 40 information sheets and got the names of 29 interested students. With that level of interest from incoming students, and the 45 returning students who are trying out, we are looking forward to an amazing team this coming fall with a roster of 40-45 students. Watch this page for updates when the final team is chosen and announced on Monday June 16.
