McQuaid Invitational

Tomorrow is the 45th annual McQuaid Invitational at Genesee Valley Park. It has been 30 years since my first trip to McQuaid, and I still find the atmosphere as exciting as I did back then. With nearly 250 schools attending, there will be up to 7500 runners competing in 25 high school races. The part of the schedule that includes our entries is as follows:

2:26 Race #18 Girls Varsity "B" (a J.V. race) for Medium and Large schools
2:50 Race #19 Boys Jr. High #3 (Large schools)
3:02 Race #20 Girls Unseeded Varsity AA-2 (Medium/Large schools)
3:26 Race #21 Girls Jr. High #3 (Large schools)
3:38 Race #22 Boys Unseeded Varsity AAA-2 (large schools)
4:45 Race #25 Boys Varsity "B" (A J.V. race) for Large schools

You also won't want to miss the big races of the day:
3:58 Race #23 Girls Seeded Varsity AAA (Large schools)
4:22 Race #24 Boys Seeded Varsity AAA (Large schools)

There was a nice article covering the race in today's D&C. The D&C also had a big article on HF-L's two studs: Deir and Mangan.
