Come early if you don't want a long walk from parking.

Last year Newton South girls won upsetting the favored Lincoln-Sudbury team.
In 2007 NS boys (all juniors) were 3rd in this meet.
This year the girls race should be between NS and LS again. Haverhill is expected to follow.
The boys will have a close race with Methuen and St. John's Prep. I expect the boys team to all finish within 30 seconds of each other.
