The final dual meet of the season is scheduled for Tuesday at Brookline, but a quick check of the weather forecast casts doubt on the chances of the meet taking place without a postponement. On Monday Morning, the forecast is for temperatures in the upper 40s, with periods of rain and winds gusting 35-50 mph.
If the meet is not held Tuesday, it seems likely that both schools would try to squeeze it in on Wednesday, 10/25. That's not the best situation because the BSC League meet is on Saturday, so there will be little time to rest and recover from what figures to be an all-out effort against the Warriors. At least all the BSC teams will be dealing with the same issue.
Besides Brookline v. Newton North, another good meet will be Needham v. Wellesley at Wellesley's home course. In what might be referred to as a "Run of the Charles," Wellesley's Charlie Meade takes on Needham's Charles Beard. I pick Wellesley, but it should be a battle.
Although it's early to be looking at the weather for the weekend, it looks like we might luck out and have a beautiful fall day for the league meet. Last year's league meet was held on the same day as the Red Sox World Seres Championship Parade, decimating the ranks of our boys JV team. What a long time ago that seems!
