We welcome 6th-8th grade boys and girls of all running levels to join Head Coach Doug Davis and his talented assistants for what we expect to be another great season. Cross Country (XC) meets immediately after school, from 3pm - 4:10pm at the IMS track. The Athletic Eligibility Packet must be turned in before students can workout; an ASB card ($30) and payment of the athletic fee ($50) are also required before athletes can participate.
Students are required to attend eight practices before participating in meets. They are not allowed to join practices if they do not intend on participating in meets. The first one is Tues. Sept 22nd, at Chief Kanim Middle School. Click here for the full meet schedule. The success of our popular XC team relies heavily on volunteer help! From assistance at practices to course marshals to snack helpers, we need you. Please contact Nancy Rogers at nancyrogers123@msn.com. For all other questions about the XC team, Coach Davis can be reached at doug.davis@mercerislandschools.org. Back to Top |
