The UWC east boys have won it all at the High School Cross Country ACSIS. On October 28th 2015 after school. The High School cross country finals took place. A very competitive group of kids turned up in the hope to take home a medal. One group in particular was extremely eager, the UWCSEA east boys. The east boys brought their best team, with hope to become victorious.
With the flag off at 4:30, the east boys looked strong with a line of four leading the pack including Alex, Matt, Aaron, and middle school student Will. With a very tight race throughout the course the 4 east boys always stayed in the front pack. As runners approached the hill many runners slowed down and stopped as they did not have enough energy, but not the east boys. As they turned into the final 700 meters, with dover leading the U19s and east leading the U16s. This is where the change in positions took place. Aaron leads U16s followed by Will. Will takes his chances and passes Alex and Matt. Then they all finish in close proximity.
As the results pool in, runners stand nervously wondering which team won overall. With results in, there are awards for each age group and for overall teams. U16 was dominated by East. Aaron in 1st, Will in 2nd, Johan in 3rd, and Kentaro in 4th. U19 was close with dover in first and second followed by Matt. Now the team medals were awarded. In U16 boys East was awarded first place while in U19 East claimed 2nd place. The whole age group title was awarded to a dominating east. “The whole team worked really hard and the it showed in the results. Now we have to focus on winning SEASAC” Will tells reporters. As they go into SEASAC, east hope to keep up this huge winning streak.
