• For All Other Athletes on the team (who are not Middle School, and are not Varsity Athletes attending the State Divisional and Championship meets), you are welcome and encouraged to attend practices until the season ends, in order to stay in shape for the upcoming Indoor Track season.  Participation in these practices is optional if you are not racing at the Middle School or Varsity State meets.

• On Tuesday, 10/31/23, the Varsity Boys will be running a 2-mile race on the track for the Hoka Post Nationals Race, running against Brookline and Cambridge.  This will be at 5pm at the Harry Downes Field/ Brookline Track.  

Coach Nyhan will take his group to this track (running from BLS) as part of their practice, so that everyone can watch the race and cheer on their teammates.  EVERYONE IS ENCOURAGED TO COME TO THIS RACE TO SUPPORT OUR TEAM.
