Delbarton Middle School Cross Country Takes Championship

Team wins Greater Morris title

Delbarton's Middle School Cross Country Coach, Mr. Doug Goodale, reports that on Friday, October 22, 2010 the Delbarton Middle School Cross Country Team won the Greater Morris County Cross Country (X-C)  Championships held at RFL fields in Boonton.

The team was led by Ryan McLaughlin ('15) and Michael Barone ('15), who finished second and fifth in the invitational respectively. Max Hofbauer ('15), Paul Shuler ('15), Brian Monaghan ('15), and Teryan Lowery ('15) all had great performances, finishing ahead of the second place finishing team's fifth runner.

The team with the lowest number of points wins in X-C (the sum of the top five finishers). Delbarton won a close victory 39-41 over Mendham Boro. Arul Elango '16, Kyle Reigler '16 and Alvin Song '16 are excited to lead the team next year in defending the championship.
