Harwood Union cross-country teams did well in their opening meet at the Essex Invitational at Essex Tree Farm on Saturday, August 31. Coach Matt Migonis praised the team effort.
"It was a great first meet of the season. Despite the rain and very muddy conditions, most of our returning athletes ran faster than they did last year and some by more than three minutes! I was very happy with the effort today and look forward to getting after it again next weekend at the Burlington Invitational on Saturday,” Migonis said.
