"An absolutely incredible day for all the Harwood Union runners. Of the 18 athletes that ran today, 15 set lifetime personal best times and the other three were just a handful of seconds from doing the same. You don't see that very often, and even more rarely at the second race of the season. Hopefully this is a good sign of things to come the rest of the year,” said Harwood Union cross-country coach Matt Migonis about last weekend’s meet in Burlington on September 7.
