11/1/93              XAVIER CROSS COUNTRY NEWSLETTER   

   This past Saturday, the team bravely took the field during a mansoon.  The weather played an important role in hindering many of the ever improving Xavier Harriers from dropping their respective times.  We were, however, able to collect 7 medals and a few prs.  Here are the results:

Despite the weather, it was a good showing for Xavier as  we showed the league that we are ready to run  in the top of any race or division.

MEDAL COUNT:  With the addition of 7 medals this weekend the season total rises to 92.

MIP/BEST PERFORMANCE:  Tough call, especially when everyone who ran, ran tough.  The award goes to TONY BIANCIO for coming back after a two week vacation and running close to his pr and to JOE GONZALEZ who while unable to remain upright during the race finished strong anyhow.
