NNHS Alumni Results - Sept 8-9, 2007

The college XC season has begun, with many teams competing in low-key meets or relay events over the past two weekends -- a prelude to the more grueling season ahead. In addition, the New England Road Race championship series resumed on Saturday with the NE 5M championship. Here are a few results from NNHS alumni at these events.

Dan Chebot finished seventh for Rochester in a quad meet Saturday, running 27:22 for 8K. The Yellowjackets had an impressively narrow gap of 1:05 from first to seventh, boding well for the team's chances this season.

There were at least two NNHS alumni competing in the Ollie 5M road race (USATF NE Championship) held in South Boston Saturday, John Blouin and Josh Seeherman both competed, but tmes have not been posted.

On Saturday, Sept 1, Bates College sophomore Doug Brecher placed fourth overall (second on his team) in the annual Bates Varsity vs. Alumni Run. Brecher ran 29 seconds faster than last year over the 4M course (low 21s?).

On August 31, Wake Forest freshman Jess Barton ran in her first collegiate competition, helping the Deamon Deacon women win the Wake Forest Relays, running 18:15 for the ninth best individual time in the 2 x 2.5K event.
