Meet Information

Dear Coach,
I hope that all is going well and that you and your athletes are ready for what we hope will be an exciting XC season. I know this is early, but I wanted to get this information out to you and invite your program to our home cross country meet.
I know some teams like Friday meets and others like Saturday meets so pick which date is best for you. We will host on the two following dates and would like your teams to participate.
Friday, August 11th, 2023 - 3rd Annual Will Sirmon Alumni Invitational - All divisions will run 2 miles.
Saturday, August 12th, 2023 - Dawson Early Short Course - All divisions will run 2 miles
These meets will be limited to about 20 teams for each day and will feature a 2 mile course for your teams to participate in.
Both dates will feature a flat/fast course and will be a great opportunity to run a decent time early in the season. If you are interested in participating, please send me an e-mail and let me know your intentions for your team.
Awards: Medals will be awarded to the first 15 finishers in the all divisions except the open race, no awards will be given. Plaques will be awarded to the first place team in each division.
