The men’s cross country team is still riding off of the first place finish in last fall’s Conference Championship. The Roger Williams Hawks pulled off the win by 3 points, and they were a well deserved three points. As the 2009-2010 school year finished up the men’s Cross Country Team had to say good-bye to 6 seniors; Tim Eynatian, Todd Massari, Chris Disciullo, Michael Russo, and Stephen Leonetti. The will be missed but we wish them the best of luck.
It is now the 2010 season for the Men’s Cross Country team and we welcome 9 new hawks to the team; Jamie Goodwick (Jr.), Kyle DeMarche (Fr.), Matt Duggan (Fr.), John Ferguson (Fr.), David Fitol (Fr.), Dan Herbein (Fr.), Jeremy Kacher (Fr.), Henry Loughlin (Fr.), and Chase Osgood (Fr.). They all are very strong and have adapted well to college training as well as the races.
Just a real quick run through of how the scoring works in Cross Country, the top 5 runners places for each team are added together and, like golf, the lowest scoring team, wins. If there is a tie then the 6th and 7th runner is added to the score to determine the winner.
We have competed in 2 invites already, and have done very well in both; our first meet was at Bryant College in Smithfield, RI. Mitch Leveille (22nd), Jack Ferguson (29th), Jon Ellis (36th), Tom Maybury (37th), Jeremy Kacher (54th), Henry Loughlin (56th), Andrew Gallant (57th), and Brian Ki (74th) were the top 8 finishers. Our second invitational was a home meet at Colt State Park, where the RWU Hawks took 3rd place; Mitch Leveille (7th), John Ferguson (10th), Jon Ellis (14th), Tom Maybury (16th), Henry Loughlin (19th), Andrew Gallant (20th), Jeremy Kacher (21st), and Chase Osgood (22nd) were our top 8 runners. Jamie Goodwick and Dan Herbein were not far behind Chase.
We are excited for the rest of the season to play out because we have a lot of young potential as well as a great deal of returning talent.
