2018
Mid-Atlantic Prep League
Cross-Country
Championships
The eighteenth annual MAPL
Cross-Country Championship will be conducted at Mercersburg Academy
on Wednesday October 31st,
with a “bad weather” date of Thursday November 1st.
The varsity Boys’ race is scheduled to start at 1:30pm. Following
the completion of the Boys’ varsity race, the Girls’ varsity race
will begin at 2:00pm. The Futures Race, a mixed gender Futures race,
will start at approximately 2:30pm.
The route will be marked in
accordance with National High School Federation rules which dictate
the use of colored flags to designate changes of direction. The
flags will be supplemented by a white marking on the ground in some
areas to aid runners. Course marshals will also be present at
critical points to guide runners.
Each runner
will be assigned a bib number and will be required to wear the number
pinned to the front of their jersey.
The
runners who come to the line for the varsity race will be declared as
your Varsity seven. No need to declare these runners prior to them
coming to the line. Runners who do not compete in the Varsity races
may compete in the mixed gender Futures race.
If
you have, any questions please contact Lauren Hoffman or William
Sodano as soon as possible. hoffmanl@mercersburg.edu
