9/26: The Falcon's Cross Country team continued their strong start to the season with a formidable showing at Saturday’s meet at Providence Classical. Thomas Langley began the morning by medaling with an 8th place finish in the men’s varsity race over a challenging course. His brother, Andrew Langley, was also a strong competitor and recorded a 5k personal record in the event. For the third consecutive week, Ashlyn Miller led the girls race from start to finish — winning the varsity women’s competition by a margin of almost 30 seconds! Annie Perry, with a strong final mile, recorded an 8th place finish. Five women varsity runners - Ashlyn Miller, Annie Perry, Grace Delahoussaye, Mary Maggio, and Lauren Sharpless, all achieved personal records (PRs) in the 5k race! Coach Maddalena said, "The coaches are very pleased with today's performance of our boys and girls teams as we begin to approach the mid-point of our abbreviated season. The hard work in practice continues to pay off with most of our varsity and JV runners setting PRs for 2nd week in a row."
9/19: The Falcons turned in impressive results across the board in their second meet of the season at the Woodlands Christian Academy! The Lady Falcons had a noteworthy second-place team finish in the women’s varsity race against a highly competitive field! Ashlyn Miller once again won the 3200 meter race in a time of 12:06, while freshman Annie Perry made her varsity debut taking ninth place overall. Ashlyn Miller, Annie Perry, Grace Delahoussaye, Mary Maggio, Lauren Sharpless and Juanita Boada each achieved personal best times, which is outstanding for the second meet of the season! Thomas Langley earned a medal for his fifth-place finish in the men’s 5000 meter varsity race with his personal best time of 17:05. Jack Miggins notably broke the 20-minute barrier, while Andrew Langley, Nathan Bartsch, Lucas Rivera, Paul Eisterhold and freshman Collin Dufrene each had their best ever 5k races! "Our Falcons had a strong showing today in every race; we truly came to compete! Nearly every Varsity and JV runner had their all time best performance, which is impressive for this early in the season. The team has been working tirelessly at practice so it’s rewarding to see their achievements. The coaches are excited to see what else the team will do this season — they’re just getting started." - Coach Maddalena
