Crowd at the Start
You can see Aaron Magid leaning over and possibly Leonard Wholey. It's pretty crowded here, though.
VIEW
Runners set ...
This gives you an idea of how big the meet was.
VIEW
People waiting Around
It looks like the N.A. tent in the background, with people waiting for the leader, Greg Costello from Mt. Lebo, to come around the turn.
VIEW
Run for It
The day wasn't this cloudy, but you can see the starter running for his life right after he fires the gun.
VIEW
Running down the first slope
This is the lead pack heading down the first wannabe hill. No SSA runners are easily recognizable here.
VIEW
Two Guys Running
Here are two guys looking like they're doing the first section a second time because there's no one near them, and they're not the leaders.
VIEW
Thinning Out
This is a good shot of the leaders coming towards the slight grade along the road. Greg Costello from Mt. Lebo (Royal top, yellow shirts), Luke Hilko from N.A. (Yellow top, black shorts),
Jeremy LaBuff from Gateway (black top, black shorts), and Chad Buechel from Central Catholic (Yellow top, yellow shorts) are in the front pack. They were the top four in that order. Buechel won the Spiked Shoe Invite at Penn State the week before.
SSA's Andrew Bell is chasing the lead pack. He's in the blue and yellow and white singlet with navy shorts. He finished tenth overall.
VIEW
Something went wrong here
This probably would have been a great picture, but the disk was messed up or something
VIEW
Bell makes a Pass
This is Andrew Bell obscuring and passing an unkown opponent. Bell finished 10th in 17:19. It was a slow course because of THE HILL.
VIEW
Jeremy LaBuff
This is Jeremy LaBuff from Gateway. He finished third overall. Apparently, the spectators from Moon don't care.
VIEW
Luke Hilko
This is Luke Hilko, leader of the N.A. Tigers. He finished second at Spiked Shoe to Chad Buechel. He beat Buechel today, but lost to Greg Costello from Mt. Lebanon. He's pretty fast.
VIEW
Andre Moura
Andre Moura, the Portugese-Man-o-War fights by some guy from Hampton wearing glasses. Andre beat Aaron Magid for the first time this season, finishing second on the team and getting a medal.
VIEW
Aaron Magid
Aaron Magid, on his way to finishing third for SSA holds on as Dave Fries from Shaler tries to pass him on the way into the chutes.
VIEW
Leonard Wholey
Leonard Wholey, proving that one can deliver fish once a week and skip practice, yet still remain a decent runner, finishes fourth for SSA behind some guy from Central Catholic.
