COLLEGE ACTION: Another busy weekend at VCP
Sep 22, 2008
NYU opened defense of its NCAA championship in men’s cross country over the weekend, winning its own invitational Saturday morning at Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx. Coach Nick McDonough’s Violets, surprise winners of the Div. III nationals a year ago, rested two of last year’s top returnees, Jesse Schneider (Delhi NY) and Calvin Lee (Old Tappan NJ), and relied on newcomers. “We’ll be looking to reload after our last few highly successful seasons,” McDonough said. “We have a lot of young guys, including some freshmen, that will help fill the void.”
