Wellesley Sweeps Norwood
The Wellesley girls had no difficulty shutting out Norwood, winning their meet at Norwood 15-50. The Wellesley boys had a tougher challenge, but prevailed 16-41. Nick Carroll won by half a minute in 17:23. According to Dyestat sources, Will Volkmann sprained his ankle and had to drop out. We hope it's a minor injury and he is back soon.
Natick-Walpole Split
The Walpole boys notched their 5th win of the season over the redmen, 24-32, despite having two varsity runners out of the meet with injuries. The Natick girls defeated the rebels 22-33, as rebecca white and Anya Price tied for first for Natick.

very impressed by gibson. he could be one of the best in the northeast this year.
Needham won on the girls and boys side against framingham yesterday
volkmann has a confirmed sprain and was on crutches today (luckily no break), with the best of the luck he'll be on the stationary bike by monday -- racing CM is still another question.
We just hope he's back and fit for needham / wellesley.
Well, it seems that neither I nor Coach Blackburn got Seb's name right on the first try. Coach points out to me that it's P-U-T-Z-E-Y-S, with a "Z" and an "E", but any way you spell it, he is very speedy!
