Cross Country Track Saves their Best Effort for the Final Race
Saturday, November 10, 2018, Bronx, NY – On Saturday, November 10th, the La Salle Cross Country team participated in the CHSAA Varsity City Championship Meet at Van Cortlandt Park. The finale for the cross country team proved to be the Varsity’s best individual and team effort of the year! The day even included Coaches William Hackshaw and Peter Williams running in the Alumni race with William Cruz, alumnus from the Class of 2017!
Competing in the Varsity B Championship Race, Elias Torres finished first followed by Kenneth Echeveria in 2nd place. In total, five Cardinals finished in the Top 20 of the race but the team would fall one point short of winning the Varsity B City Championship. Congratulations to all of the La Salle Runners who participated in Cross Country this year.
