Temp 75 & Overcast, light rain after the race
Medals Galore!! (This is one invitational you circle the date when the season starts. This is a must race at all cost to get a medal. Therefore if you’re thinking about getting injured, or sprained ankle, illness of any kind, ‘you run this race first.’ 20 medals were given out in each division class and a total of 160 all together for this meet. Back the truck up or bus because the Maroons are weighted down after this meet with all the medals they took home. I think the bus had a little trouble getting back to the school because of all the additional weight of the hardware.
This year the Geneseo Invite added a new team to the race and that team “WWS.’ Wheaton Warrenville South is coached by former Moline track and crosscountry superstar Rob Harvey. Coach Harvey and coach T ran on the winning 4×800 state championship relay team capturing a gold medal and recording the fastest time ever in the state that year.. They also ran on the third place state crosscountry championship team taking home a bronze medal for the Maroons.
