Cross Country

BBSSSA Jason Carpenter

On Monday 10 May, our team of 28 runners competed in the Broken Bay Cross Country, held at St Ives Showground. A beautiful sunny day greeted the runners prior to the course walk. This year the course had been modified due to a COVID mobile testing facility and filming for a production on one of the adjacent fields. The course at times was a little confusing but most of our boys had few problems navigating it.

The team was very successful, highlights included:

• Deakin Wright (Under 14), Keenan White (Under 15) and Luke Foster (Under 16) winning their respective age races. • The Under 13’s (Eden Pearson, Asher Armstrong and Harrison Ryan), Under 14’s (Deakin Wright,

Cruz McMahon and Riley Turner) and the

Under 16’s (Luke Foster, Will Browning and

Tom Lawton) winning their respective age division team competition.

12 boys qualifying (students mentioned above as well as Calan Tucker and Koby Salter) for the Broken Bay Team to contest the NSWCCC Cross Country at Eastern Creek Raceway.

All the boys were very supportive of each other on the day and well behaved. A big thank you to Ms Moulton and Mr Butt for assisting with the team on the day and manning a checkpoint.
