Game Date: Oct 7, 2017
Score: COUGARS: 0

The ConVal Cross-Country team competed at Alvirne High School over the weekend at the Annual Battle of the Border. Twenty teams and approximately 600 runners faced off in a traditional invitational with an additional twist, a New Hampshire vs. Massachusetts challenge determined by the placing of the top 5 teams from each state. Despite being represented by some large schools including Boston Public, Lowell, North Andover, Marshfield, and Groton-Dunstable Massachusetts was defeated by New Hampshire in both the boys and girls competitions!

The Boys team was once again led by Evan Coyne who ran one of his best races of the season on yet another hot and humid day. Coyne finished with a time of 17:37, averaging 5:40 miles on the rolling wooded course. Max Boisvert took the number two position for the Cougars with Danny Veverka, Casey Burgess, and George Shiarella rounding out the top five.

The Girls team had a strong day, placing 3rd with only 12 points behind Coe-Brown. The team was led by Rachel Hurley and Clare Veverka who finished 3rd and 4th respectively, both cracking the 20-minute barrier again. Schuyler Michalak, Sarah Newell, and Hailey Doherty wrapped up the scoring squad for the Cougars.

The team is back at it on Tuesday when they head to Saint Anselm College for the Southern Cluster Championship meet.
