School Name Goes Here

GREENVILLE, Pa. – As the 2010 season begins for the men’s and women’s cross country teams a familiar face will be at the helm. Head track and field coach Steve Carr will take the reins of the program this year and try to take them to a Presidents’ Athletics Conference (PAC) championship.
 
The men’s cross country team is coming off a second place finish at last year’s PAC championship. The team is led by sophomore Regis Wagner (Collegeville, Pa./Perkiomen Valley), who was a first team All-PAC selection in 2009. Junior second team All-PAC selections Richard Peterson (Meadville, Pa./Meadville) and Brendan DuLaney (New Windsor, Md./Westminster) return to join Wagner and look to have strong showings in the 2010.
 
 “The upperclassmen are going to be vital this season since we have such a young team,” remarked Carr. “They have all improved from last season, which is really exciting for the program. They are each looking to build off of the success that they had last season.”
 
The women’s team is looking to have a turnaround season under coach Carr after finishing seventh at the PAC championship last season. Veteran leadership mixed with an infusion of younger talent will look to lift the women’s team into contention this season.
 
When asked about the expectations for the women’s team, Carr replied, “the coaching staff expects a lot from the women’s team this year and we believe that they will be able to rise to the occasion. We have a lot of dedicated individuals, which is one of the most important things to have in this sport.”
 
The women’s team will be led this season by senior Sarah McAfee (Butler, Pa./Butler). “We are very happy that we have such a strong athlete like Sarah back this season,” said Carr, “Her leadership and her dedication are going to be very important to our team in 2010.”
 
With a new group of coaches at the helm and some great veteran leadership the men’s and women’s cross country teams will look improve upon their respective finishes of last season.
