The Best Meet of the Year
Nov 10, 2011
The Eastern Massachusetts divisional meet is the best meet of the cross country season. Dozens of teams have high hopes for this day. Of course teams will be gunning to be the champs of their divisions, but in some ways the real excitement will be in the battle for the final all-state qualifying berths. It's a lot like the Olympic trials. Being the US champ is huge, but the real agony is not in finishing second, it is reserved for the athlete who is left home.
