2003-2004 Season Summary: Boys' Cross Country

Boys Cross Country had an excellent building season this fall, finishing with a respectable record, and enjoying vigorous competition. The squad, composed of returning runners Marc Bucks, Mac Weaver, Captain Emerson Curry and Tim Singer, benefited from the arrival of Hunter Hollrah, Josh Bly, and Brian De Regt.

Together, these young men formed a core group, pushing one another in practice, and running side by side in competition. Other contributors to the varsity squad who worked tirelessly to support their teammates included Drew Davis, Josh Neuman and Josh Lee. The beautiful land around Kent served the team well in their daily training, providing many memorable experiences, and mile after mile of terrain to test their skills. Thanks to
the dedication and hard work of veteran coach Tom Holcombe, designer and maintainer of the treacherous 3.1 mile home course, departing harriers finished their final meet with a strong victory over Millbrook after a close and very respectable loss to Choate (our only two home meets of the season). The season opened with the Canterbury Invitational, an annual rite of passage for the varsity seven, and concluded with Founders League and the New England Championships.
