NNHS Alumni Results - 10/31-11/1/09

Chris Barnicle placed 4th in the Mountain West Conference championships, held Saturday in Orem, Utah, as his New Mexico team won the men's team title over 7th-ranked BYU. Chris blitzed the course in 23:51.

Boston University senior David Polgar was third man for the Terriers at the America East conference meet, running 26:57 for 28th.

On Sunday, Doug Brecher returned to racing after battling an infection for several weeks, running the NESCAC championships and placing 44th in 27:58. Newton South alum Andrew Wortham was 68th in 28:28.

Noah Jampol ran in the unseeded race at the Centennial Conference championships, held on a muddy course at Gettysburg College. Noah placed 30th in 31:38. Johns Hopikins teammate Alex Long (Newton South) was 33rd in 31:44.

Josh Seeherman ran in the Pacific Association USATF XC championships this past weekend. He writes:

"4.25 miles, good dirt footing and one large 280' hill... Among open men I was 60th out of 76, and ran 26:08 or 6:09 pace. I had a bit left due to unfamiliarity of the course, but nevertheless - good grief the Top 12 were under 22 minutes..."
