Key concern: Depth.
Coach’s outlook: There are a lot of quality teams and the playoffs should be wide open. We should be one of several teams who have a chance.

Fall 2004 record: One win.

Girls Cross Country
Coach: Karen Reardon (3rd year)
Fall 2004 record: 9-6 in the league

Key concern: Still want more numbers on the team, but that seems to be a work in progress.
Coach’s outlook: Cross country is all about team, and we have a group that can run together. When they are all ready to go, I think that we are going to surprise a few people. It is so nice to see a pack of red shirts out on the course together.

Coach: Paul Brogan (37th year)
Fall 2004 record: 10-4
How did last season end: Finished 9th in regionals. Just missed qualifying for states.
Key veterans: Michael Welch and David Knowland
Key newcomers: Tom Biskup, Brian Huynh, Tom Gott, Matt Bremermann and Nick Gray
Key concern: It’s a young team, and they’ll need support from the two senior captains. That will enhance their progress.

Coach’s outlook: We’re looking to be a team that improves through work and repetition in the weight room, the film room and on the practice field. We want to be a team that shows improvement from week to week.
