COACH'S CORNER
Chicago City Championship
On a dark, cold, wet October morning the team was up long before dawn to catch their bus.
Despite the incredible hour and horrible conditions they all showed up excited and ready to run.
Nothing was going to dampen their spirits.
Not even the mean hail storm that pelted them in the middle of the meet.
The girls' Cross Country team, once again, proved that, regardless of conditions, they are willing to step up and get the job done. It was the kind of day that everyone can look back on with great pride.
Not one girl hesitated to step to the starting line. Girls volunteered to stand in for teammates who could not make it to their races. Teammates carried eachother off the field.
If you ever doubt your school's spirit we invite you to come out any time and watch this tough bunch of girls cross the finished line.
The team capped off a great season at the CPS championship placing well in all four divisions--Freshmen (6th), Sophomore (6th), Varsity (8th), and Junior Varsity (3rd). It was the kind of season coaches dream about.
Illinois State Regional
Just like the mailman, the girls' cross country team found a way to deliver in the cold and rain at their Illinois State Regional meet at Schiller Woods. The team came within just a few points of their first ever team advance to the State Sectional Meet.
We all want to bid a fond farewell to our incredible senior leaders including Gabriela Hernandez, Raquel Davis, Fransely Robles, Itzel Gutierrez, and Bianca Garcia.
We wish the best of luck to these girls who have set such a great example to the youner members of our team.
We are going to miss you all! 2010 Girls' Cross Country Schedule
