THE 2018 SEASON
- Positions on the Varsity team will be competitive by time and academic performance. There are 5 boys and 5 girls on the Varsity team.
- Any student can run for the LMS JV team if they maintain good academic standing and behavior.
- Runners are students first. The cross-country team members are expected to maintain their academic grades and show positive and appropriate citizenship and character at all times.
- Varsity runners are expected to attend all practices and maintain a C average or higher in all classes. Poor grades will result in not being allowed to run for the varsity team.
- Junior Varsity runners are expected to attend regularly and maintain passing grades. Students with failing grades will not run in meets.
- Practices will be days a week, immediately after school. We will run from 3:20-4:15.
- Fees are $75 and include a XC t-shirt, running shorts, and entry into all meets. You will be assigned a jersey which must be returned at the end of the season.
- Runners need good shoes. We are partnering with Fleet Feet in Murfreesboro to fit our athletes properly and get excellent deals and discounts. Team fees will offset a portion of the cost.
- The season generally runs from September to October with state championships being held the first week of October in Clarksville.
- The girls team should be sure they wear appropriate supportive undergarments for running.
