Harper, Arroyo Best At Ted Benz XC Jamboree Aug 27, 2011

Several Central Florida cross country squads got a chance to see their summer training in action at the 2011 Ted Benz Cross Country Jamboree at Trotters Park. The girls 5K race was a two person race between Hagerty's Amy Ankli and Merrit Island's Elizabeth Harper, but it was Harper  taking the win and crossing the finish line around 20:05. In the boys race, host Colonial represented well. Junior Andres Arroyo running that course for the first time was all alone in the front winning around 16:07.

It's an exciting time of year! After a long summer break--hopefully filled with countless miles of base training--our high school harriers (sans class of 2011) are back in action. This weekend many teams in the Orlando Metro area will open their preseason with the 2nd Annual Ted Benz XC Jamboree, named in honor of the recently retired legendary Central Florida coach.
